Hi,
I am running the latest version of the SilverStripe Jumpbox - v1.1.6 and I am running into an issue where I can no longer access the SilverSripe website, SilverStripe Admin or even the Jumpbox Admin. It will randomly do this after running the VM for 3 to 6 hours.
I am running in Virtual Server 2005 R2 and I upped the ram on the VM to 1GB.
admin@silverstripe:~$ free -m

Mem: 1011 258 753 0 16 71
-/+ buffers/cache: 170 840
Swap: 549 0 549
admin@silverstripe:~$
Not sure what else to do here??? Should I try VMWare?

Hi Tony,
Well, I would definitely recommend VMware over MS Virtual Server for a number of reasons. First is that VMware is supported as a "Tier 1" platform:

Second, MS Virtual Server is Microsoft's last generation virtualization server.
Despite that, I think I can solve your problem on VS. If you want to pursue this fix, please make sure the JumpBox is up and running and accessible, and then SSH into the JumpBox as the admin user and edit the grub config file:
Now you need to add clock=pit to both the lines that begin with kernel. So the line that looks like:
becomes
Now reboot the JumpBox and it should not crash at this point. One thing worth noting is that the clock might drift a lot now. So you should consider installing NTP.

Let me know if you need any clarification.

Hi Austin,
Thanks for your help. I have made the changes to menu.lst file as you suggested, installed NTP to update the system clock and rebooted the server.
I will keep an eye on it and let you know how it goes.
Thanks for your help!
