I'd check the fridge for any leftover pizza. Might need the energy to dig through all those log files.

Forget the logs, let's just reboot the server and call it a day. What could possibly go wrong?

Hmm, this is a tough one. I guess I'd start with /var/log/messages.log just to get a broader view of the system. But the /var/log/httpd/messages.log is also a good bet. Depends how deep we need to dig.

Gotta be /var/log/httpd/access.log. That's where you'll find the user activity that might have triggered the crash. Can't forget the access logs!
