Standard questions come to mind: - What do your logs say? - Are you running anything semi-dangerous like rmagick or older versions of acts_as_ferret? - Are you using Ruby based log rotation?
BTW, maybe we could put up solutions to common issues into a page on mongrel.rubyforge.org? I don't see one on http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/docs/index.html...
