Web site not responding

[eluser]jmaxsin[/eluser]
for the server logs... we've checked out the application, system and security logs... and nothing, no errors at all. We're using sql server and I don't know how to look out the logs. and restarting does nothing... it does not generate any errors and it doesn't change what's happening.

I thought i would try and comment out all of the dbconn statements... and that atleast brought the site up. I can flip through it... however it has trouble opening a simple pdf file using and include. It times out and generates the following error: Server Error, unable to connect to fastcgi server.

So I have not database connectivity and can't even open a simple document.... but that still doesn't help me with functionality that needs the databases.
