My series of server problems lately made me think of the album by the
Police. Yes I am a product of the '80s.  I digress....

So, we have seen a series of problems lately that have been very frustrating
to diagnose.  I keep dreadfully remembering Dave Livingston's statement
Tuesday night regarding one of the times to suspect you may have been
breached ("If you find unexplained behavior on your server") but I am
finding no evidence of this as of yet.

Last week we began seeing some request timeouts which I finally determined
was a memory problem on the SQL Server (more
here<http://www.daveshuck.com/index.cfm?commentID=65>...).
Once that problem was in the rear view mirror, we began seeing occasional
spikes on the Jrun process where it would peg out the processor until the CF service was restarted. We have a fairly high-traffic application and we are seeing this once or twice a day. Each time I have found it to be (much like
the SQL Server issue) a case where the available threads would fill up, and
you could see the queued thread number continue to rise behind it.  I have
found no consistent instigator of that problem.  Although a pain, and
something that needs to be addressed, I am finding a new and more
mind-boggling problem...

Since Monday, we are seeing problems where a page load happens but it
behaves as if not all the HTML code in the page was there. This only happens in IE, and seems to happen for user. For instance, on a log-in screen.. The
user submits... they go to the authenticated page, and some
javascript-dependent menu is not working. Or they might go to a page and it
will be just a blank screen (including the CF administrator).  Then when
refreshed, the page works fine.  When this happens, it is often accompanied
by a little yellow triangle on the status bar saying that an error has
occurred at position 1 of line 2, which has often been a blank line.  An
interesting point in this is that if you view source on the page that
failed, copy the HTML into a new blank template, and run it, it behaves just
fine.  The code is there (kind of ruling out CF at that point), but
somewhere in the presentation of that between the web server and the
browser, something just gets goofed up.  This problem is consistent and
reproduce-able, but only on that machine.  The same code on the development
server does not behave that way.   Does anyone have any clue or advice at
all?

Thanks!
