And since it cant write to the error log, there's no way to find out why it crashed. >How-To-Repeat: Get some really bad programmers and create 2 gigs of error messages in a week like we did. =) >Fix: Check file size and manually rotate the logs when approaching 2 gigs. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: [In order for any reply to be added to the PR database, you need] [to include in the Cc line and make sure the] [subject line starts with the report component and number, with ] [or without any 'Re:' prefixes (such as "general/1098:" or ] ["Re: general/1098:").
