That would likely explain it, and the randomness of it. I did note that when I had problems the only way to resolve it was to rotate the source logfile. With Tomcat and most java apps the only way to rotate the logs is to use copytruncate. Otherwise it quits writing the log.
I can live with it until the next release now that I'm aware of it. Thanks for the info.
