Oh boy, have I ever had this problem! Nobody had any idea's how to fix it.
Xitami at this point has crashed, and is attempting to write a memory dump,
called memtrace.lst. However, this debug routine is buggy, and keeps on
dumping to the file unitl your HDD is full. My best was a 32GB file. :-(
Only way out is to reboot the machine, Xitami no longer responds to any
service calls.
Very frustrating. I'm running the same setup as you. To think I went to the
service version to make it MORE stable. Hah!
I went back to the Win32 version, and use a batch file to restart it if it
crashes. At least it crashes gracefully, unlike the service version.
