System Unavailable/MYSQL Error

[Roger Ramjet]

This morning from 0500hrs until just after 1200hrs I was unable to find www.coolthaihouse.com, let alone post pics. Any reason? Or was dozer tweeking the system again? Or did the military/MICT/govt fine something offensive?

This is from the host on today's problem:

this was something new today, mysql was running but without having a socket for communication.

A simple restart of the mysql process fixed it.

There was a high load spike in the system, which had my watchdog scripts restarting several processes, and it seems that the mysql process was not restarting properly.

As to what caused the high load spike, I cannot see anything unusual.

Just a note on the times, I believe that this was repaired at between 9AM and 10AM this morning.
