Graham,

Thanks for the info. I have checked both logs, core as well as the vhost's
logs. Yes, I've been lately getting this as well but they weren't appearing
few days back, although problem has been appearing for the past many days:

[info] mod_wsgi (pid=xxxxx): Daemon process deadlock timer expired, stopping
process 'seenreport'.

I did get some segmentation faults earlier but somehow they stopped
appearing now. They were like this:

[notice] seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process

Also, I get these messages:

[error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients
setting

Prolly the last one is because all the processes get stucked and hence the
server stops responding.

I've changed the number of processes of WSGIDaemon now. Previously they were
1 and now they are 10. The config now looks like this:

Here are my WSGI related lines:

              WSGIScriptAlias / /home/www/site.com/apache2/django.wsgi
              WSGIDaemonProcess snr user=iwitness group=iwitness
processes=10 threads=10 display-name=apache-wsgi
              WSGIProcessGroup snr
              <Directory /home/www/site.com/apache2/django.wsgi>
              Order allow,deny
              Allow from all
              </Directory>
