I have a web server running on a EC2 c1.medium intance.

The instance is running on ubuntu, with apache2 and mysql.The ubuntu and apache version are the next;

Ubuntu
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=11.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=natty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 11.04"

Apache2
Server version: Apache/2.2.17 (Ubuntu)
Server built:   Feb 22 2011 18:33:02
  • Sometimes randomly, my server "hangs up", I cannot connect to it using normal web access or ssh access.

  • If I reboot the instance it reboots fine, the amazon system log doesn't show anything weird, but the problem persists

  • The only way to solve it its stopping the instance, and start it again.

I think that the problem its has something to do with apache, because the last lines of the error log lists:

normal errors
