I guess my question was a bit vague to start off with... I've trawled through the logs before, but this time noticed the following straight away: OCIEnvNlsCreate() failed. There is something wrong with your system - please check that ORACLE_HOME is set. These two sites have recently been moved from RHEL3 (where I got exactly the same behaviour) to RHEL5. I guess it's possible that the ORACLE_HOME environment variable doesn't get set by the time Apache starts up, after a reboot...that may explain it.

Each and every time, without fail, when the server is rebooted, you browse to those sites and get a 500 Internal Server Error message.

It's not a huge problem and those sites aren't mission-critical, but it would be nice to know why I'm getting this behaviour. > > Thanks very much. > -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
