lighttpd "gracefully" shutting down by itself at 06:25:02 every 7 days

Hi there,

Running Debian Lenny x64 and lighttpd-1.4.19 (ssl)

I've noticed as of late that lighttpd randomly shuts down every 7 days without me initiating one.

Error.log
2009-02-01 06:25:02: (server.c.1361) [note] graceful shutdown started
2009-02-01 06:25:02: (server.c.1475) server stopped by UID = 0 PID = 16541

2009-01-25 06:25:02: (server.c.1361) [note] graceful shutdown started
2009-01-25 06:25:02: (server.c.1475) server stopped by UID = 0 PID = 18108

2009-01-18 06:25:02: (server.c.1361) [note] graceful shutdown started
2009-01-18 06:25:02: (server.c.1475) server stopped by UID = 0 PID = 6688

There's nothing in access.log which corresponds to it shutting down at 6:25

root@sour:/etc/cron.daily# ls
apt aptitude bsdmainutils lighttpd logrotate man-db ntp standard sysklogd

root@sour:/etc/cron.weekly# ls
man-db sysklogd

After further looking it seems to correlate with the syslogd restart?

root@sour:/var/log# cat messages | grep 06:25
Feb 2 06:25:02 ns352248 syslogd 1.5.0#5: restart.

How do I fix this?

Lighty certainly doesn't do this by itself. It surely is some cronjob of yours - maybe logrotate?
Anyways, we can't tell you what is causing it. Sorry.

}

I suspect it's because I have an ssl cert so have to type in the pass phrase when lightty starts
