I restarted the httpd & zope. The log files reappeared and started growing
immediately.
Here's what's in /var/log/httpd/error_log:
[Wed Jul 5 12:53:55 2000] [error] mod_ssl: Child could not open SSLMutex lockfile
/etc/httpd/logs/ssl_mutex.1032 (System error follows)
[Wed Jul 5 12:53:55 2000] [error] System: Permission denied (errno: 13)
[Wed Jul 5 12:53:55 2000] [error] mod_ssl: Child could not open SSLMutex lockfile

[Wed Jul 5 12:53:55 2000] [error] System: Permission denied (errno: 13)
...and so on, many times each second.
There's also one line:

...but that appears only once
Here's the low-down on the /var/log/httpd/ssl_engine_log contents:

It would seem that this is all related to /etc/httpd/logs/ssl_mutex.1032
Here's the system state for that file:
[root@sparky logs]# pwd

This may just be a permission problem or something simple, but it certainly can
bring a system to a halt in quick order unless it's caught in time. My
system lasted less than a day and then the partition was full. With no
floppy on the UltraSparc I don't know how I'd do a rescue. This means that it's
important for it to be correct in the default install and that's why I'm being
rather verbose. Hope it helps!
Let me know what to do with this one.
Much thanks!
