Intermittently unable to load index.php

    My site is http://3ck.us – it may or may not load wordpress at any given moment. At the time of this post, it is working. When it doesn’t load, here is what happens: http://3ck.us/error.jpg

    It has done this twice now for, not loading for 3 hours the first time and fixing itself, then not loading for 5 hours and fixing itself today.

    When index.php did not load by typing http://3ck.us, I tried the other alternate methods:

    1. By typing 192.168.1.100 (the IP of the server) from within my network
    2. By typing in the IP: http://24.119.85.54
    3. By typing localhost while on the server
    4. By typing 127.0.0.1 while on the server

    None of these will make index.php load when the issue is occurring.

    What makes it more interesting is that everything else works, such as http://mail.3ck.us and ftp://3ck.us when index.php won’t load. In addition, if I rename index.php and create an index.htm file, for example, index.htm will load just fine. In other words, the problem is specific to wordpress (possibly php?). It is not an issue with DNS, Apache, or MySQL. However, even when index.php doesn’t load, I can go to http://3ck.us/wp-admin/upgrade.php, for example, and it still loads.

    Additional documentation from Apache log:

    This is what happens when it will not load index.php.

    This is what happens when I rename index.php and load index.htm (which is the readme file, renamed):

    IP Address – – [24/Nov/2008:16:00:53 -0600] “GET /icons/image2.gif HTTP/1.1” 304 –

    Does that clear anything up? Why is this randomly happening?
