Looking at the scripts in /etc/cron.daily/* I suspect it is logtruncate. It does a lot of kills and also restarts apache. Maybe one of those causes the restart. I ran logtruncate manually though and it didn't do it so I may be wrong about which script it is.

Just following up. subsonic crashes every night after the cron.daily script runs ONLY if it was started from frontview. Once my cron job restarts it, then it doesn't crash again until the system reboots or I stop/start from frontview. There is something in cron.daily that signals or restarts a frontview process (apache?) in a way that causes subsonic to go down. Once it's a child of cron, it's not a problem anymore. Maybe this can help someone track down the cause and fix it.
