#130831 - Kinda reminds me...

I am aware of the problem and am trying to determine the source of it. It does seem to be precisely in the morning, UK time--and the UK aspect is not coincidence. It effects our entire server and not just 8052.com.


Reminds me of an access control system that would crash every day around 8am, give or take a few minutes. The software was written by an idiot who apparently didn't feel the need to do error checking on user input.

The problem was solved when it was observed that a particular guard would begin his shift by setting his notebook on the system keyboard while he got his morning coffee.

Unfortunately, the idiot who wrote the software couldn't be fired because he was the VP of engineering.
