Starting about a month ago, one of our CF5 / W2K servers would intermittently stop responding to requests. The server houses about 4 sites, 2 of which run off access dbs, and 2 run of MySQL 5 dbs (working on converting the other two). Session vars are stored in access dbs.
Looking at the windows performance monitor, graphing some Cold Fusion items, the item db response time gets pinned at 100 when the server stops responding. Looking in the access log from the most recent incident, I'm seeing this: The first error is expected - the category.cfm file did have a missing item from a cfinclude, so that is now fixed. "Error","4632","02/11/06","07:01:31",,"66.249.64.13, Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.google.com/bot.html), Template file not found.<P><P> <B><H3>HTTP/1.0 404 Object Not Found</B></H3><P>Note: If you wish to use an absolute template path (e.g. TEMPLATE=""/mypath/index.cfm"") with CFINCLUDE then you must create a mapping for the path using the ColdFusion Administrator. <P>Using relative paths (e.g. TEMPLATE=""index.cfm"" or TEMPLATE=""../index.cfm"") does not require the creation of any special mappings.

An IP isn't even logged so I can't tell if it's a bot or something else. In the server.log, I see some Windows 232 and 109 errors from the same time - which would make sense since the site wasn't responding. The cure is a quick stop and start of the CF Application Server. Has anyone seen this before? Any tips on where to start diagnosing it?
