Hi
I used bitnami installer to instal v2.1 . Ever since my APIs go intermittently unavailable with error 503.
Error message says "Server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later "
I have hosted this on EC2 (AWS) and the server is running absolutely fine . On restart (using ctlscript) , everything works fine untill next occurence of this issue.
Any pointers to what I should look at to resolve this ?
Here is what I got in apache log

You may also want to investigate what is issuing the SIGTERM signal…sys restart, or some other process
Thanks for these pointers. I noticed that SIGTERM is generated when i restart all the services (after the APIs stop responding) .
About ssl issue - can that cause APIs to not respond. I am using http in my API calls…
Did anyone not have this issue at all ??
Really need some help as the DF APIs have just started behaving very randomly and stop responding almost everyday . I am having to restart all service to regain the resposnes (ctlscript restart)

I surely have seen at least 1 case of Apache not starting up right cos of improperly configured certs.As a matter of fact it might even be the easiest to isolate as you can create real SSL certs for free that would work for 90 days before it needs renewal - that’s a lot of time to test. That way you will be able to get 1 of the suspects out of the way. Cheers.
This error happen for a wide variety of reasons. Normally, this error can be due to a temporary overloading or maintenance being performed on the server and it is resolved after a period of time or once another thread has been released by web-server application. In most cases this could happen (assuming there are no faults in your app) if there are long running tasks and as a result the request queue is backed up.The subsequent points serve as a possible fix, aimed toward resolving the 503 Service Unavailable Error.
