Ryan,

Thank you for the suggestions. I enabled "debug" in the log and didn't
find any useful traces as you mentioned. I installed firebug, it is a
great tool but I also didn't get any clue via it.
I am using tomcat 5.0.28 and copied the expanded longwell-2.4.1 from the
original server(fedora 4) to a new server(windows xp sp2)'s tomcat
installation, and it works fine with all the original data.It seems the
access problem is indeeded caused by some server(network part) related
issues. I now don't remember clearly whether this access problem occured
right after the server reboot.

Now I am trying to upgrade to the latest version LongWell 2.4.2 but have
some questions regarding upgrade procedures from 2.4.1 to 2.4.2

I tried to copy the WEB-INF/database from 2.4.1 folder to 2.4.2 folder but
it didn't pass all the previous data to the new version. I found some
instructions on upgrading from semantic-bank to longwell but didn't find
instructions regarding longwell's upgrade. Is there an easy way to upgrade
from 2.4.1 to 2.4.2?

There are debugging features in Piggy Bank, I'm not sure how much
they'll reveal if the interface claims success.  Tools > Piggy Bank >
Options, to the Development tab, and Enable Debug, selecting the
debugging items you'd like to see.  I generally pick all but the third
when I'm developing.  Check your system and Java console logs for their
output.

I'd recommend Firebug and/or LiveHTTPHeaders plugins so you can watch
the XMLHttpRequest's that go by.

You can set the log4j properties for SemBank according to the level you
want to see.  I don't know much useful information you'll find in doing
that, though, since you're already seeing exceptions.

Did SemBank come back from the reboot the way you'd expect it to?  Or
Tomcat, I suppose, since you probably have Tomcat set up to run at boot.

Well, there are new versions of both out.  Maybe try a PB upgrade on one
machine and see how it fares.
