Server not found

Way too often, I go to one of my sites and get 'Server not found.'

It's using FastCGI, and the site is built with Mephisto. There are just a few articles and nothing crazy like image uploading.

The first thing I do is 'killall -usr1 dispatch.fcgi', but that usually results in a 'no process killed' message. I killall a few more times, just because. ps usually does not show a .fcgi process, so there's really nothing to kill.

I wait a little bit, and then poof, the site is back.

What's happening, what else do I need to be doing other than the killall?  Do I just need to run mongrel? This doesn't happen on my site that uses 2 mongrel instances. But that seemed like overkill for a few mephisto articles.

Hmmm - this shouldn't be happening with apps on FastCGI either.  You occasionally might have a delay, of course, but...is your Mongrel cluster on the same server?

Yes, both of these are on the same server.

Jdub - this issue will be conferred further through your support tickets.
