Apache stops running

[Lee Abell]

Apache is loaded on an A500 running 11.0. It just stops and has to be restarted. It is stopping frequently (several times a day). I have written a script to monitor for it and restart it - but I really need to fix it. I have included an exerpt from the error log. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

When this happens:

run a bdf

It looks like a filesystem is getting full, perhaps /var

/var can be expanded with online jfs or single user mode only.
