Happy to help.
Please collect logs (example judgedaemon log, syslog, apache logs, mysql logs) and send them to team@domjudge.org for further analysis. We'll see how we can improve the config check and error checks in judgedaemon to reduce the likelihood of both failures.

Tobi, THANK YOU so much for jumping in to help, and thanks to Keith as well. Fixing the permissions on the judging directory (/opt/domjudge/judgehost/judgings) got us back to where we were before, and we made some quick adjustments to the Apache configuration that seemed to help. I can't say for certain if that fixed everything because at that point the contest was close to over (we extended it by one hour) and some teams may have taken off already if they were not in the running. However, we were ultimately able to judge everything and complete the contest (albeit with contestants programming with no feedback for two hours).
We in Southern California (that means me) would like to take you up on your offer for assistance with root cause analysis. I have the contest server sitting next to me here at home and can provide anything you might want that would help with troubleshooting. Please let me know what the best way will be to proceed.
I owe the DOMjudge team big-time.
Marc
