Flash Media Server Stops Streaming

We are running Flash Media Server version 2.0.3 r68. Lately, for some reason FMS will simply stop serving content. When this happens, the FMS service is running and there is nothing in the logs indicating anything out of the ordinary. The only way to fix the problem is to stop and restart the FMS service. After doing this, FMS will work fine for several days before failing in exactly the same way. Anyone have ideas what's going on or what will fix this?

    It seems a bit strange that this behavior started happening "lately". Did you install some other piece of software or patch recently? What is the load on the server? (cpu, connections, memory, etc..)

    When you say it stops serving content, does this mean that you are able to connect to the application instance, but just not able to play content?

    If this behavior keeps happening capture the process state while it is hung (use adplus -hang option on windows)
