Apache stopping due to SIGTERM - but no reason?
So I've got this problem... Running Debian 3.0 (woody) with Apache 1.3.26.
Some times, and I don't know why, Apache simply stops. The only error is "caught SIGTERM, shutting down".
Here's the last few lines of one logfile where that happened:
[Sun Oct 24 03:14:06 2004] [error] [client 207.46.98.117] File does not exist: /var/www/web1/html/sani/SSDamESG@gmx.de

[Sun Oct 24 06:25:08 2004] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
So I don't see any error, neither here nor in any other cases Apache stopped working.
So what is the matter?
Thanks in advance!
