Graceful Restarts Every Few Seconds

I have a full day of this entry in my error.log on one of my servers. Searching around, I didn't find any answers. Wondering if you might know what causes this. Thanks, Jeff

Howdy -- that can occur if the logs are being rotated at the time. One thing you may want to do is check to see when the logs are being rotated, and if it's too close to heavy traffic periods on your server, you could change the time of day they run.

Will do. Thanks.
