Thanks for responding

Well, I wasn't at work at the time.  I just had someone restart the service
manually on the server, so I'm not sure about netstat and the processes.

Both SMTP or POP3 failed when users tried to send/receive from their Mail
clients.  Also, I could not Remote Admin the James Server so I'm fairly
certain it had halted.  Also the logs all stopped being updated approx a
minute after that error msg.  Fair enough that may not be the cause
though...

I'm using MARS v2.2.7, and I already noticed your name in the ChangeLog :)

The JVM is j2re1.4.2_04.  Recent enough I would have thought.

Is there any more info that might be useful in diagnosing it, I would love
to get to the bottom of it.

Regards

Stephen

That's not a crash.  Just a report about a the remote side closing a socket
without quiting.  Should not have anything to do with a JAMES crash.

Are you sure it crashed?  Did you check netstat and the process table?

I have been monitoring with MARS for a year or so.  Check the Change Log for
MARS and you'll see where I submitted a bugfix for the SMTP probe.  Make
sure you're using the packaged distribution.  CVS doesn't appear to have
current code.

Which JVM?
