Start the process under the observation of strace.



However, I'm trying to figure out what signal killed it.

Wish I could.. but it's already happened (to a lot of processes for the same reason)

It's an intermittant problem and can't really reproduce it at will.

I've redeployed the binary now so I can hopefully attach to it with gdb to figure out some things next time it does happen.
