Kyle12: Another webserver is an option, but we have a lot of custom apache gunk including .htaccess usage that we'd have to make sure can be ported first. If we can't get the 500 errors resolved soon, that's our path.

infinite recursion, Dravu: There's some history to that decision. fastcgi has some advantages, the biggest at the time was security. It isolates the processes per-vhost. mod_php is another last-resort, but we have no idea if it'd actually fix the root problem.

Dravu: Yes, we'll be using munin soon. We're using software RAID until we can figure out what to do next. I chose software because it was cheaper and I liked not having vendor lock-in. (Yup, we had off-site backups too, but they were partial, but that's why we're in this mess.)

The problem with our provider right now aren't technical. I think if we switch providers, it will be colo. But we'll see. We need to have things fixed first before we start evaluating where to go next.
