[UCIMC-Tech] http://lists.chambana.net wedged again...

[Stuart Levy]

The web server for http://lists.chambana.net/ is wedged again.  This is 
happening several nights a week - is the manual remedy just to do 
something simple, like "apachectl restart" ??   If so, could periodic 
restarting be stuffed in a cron job?

One way to do it: use wget to probe the server, and only restart if it's 
not answering
(exit status 4 => network error, in wget 1.12 or later):

    wget --timeout=15 --tries=3 -O /dev/null  --quiet 
http://lists.chambana.net/nonesuch
    if [ $? = 4 ]; then
         apachectl restart ; # or whatever
