bot is nowhere
Roughly put, something or someone decided to kill your eggdrop by sending it a Terminate-signal (kill -SIGTERM pidofbot).
You could edit the die-on-sigterm setting in your config-file to ask your bot not to quit upon receiving a terminate-signal, but do a restart instead. Unfortunately, the most common response to processes not quitting on SIGTERM - is to send the SIGKILL signal instead, which cannot be caught, and immediately kills the process.
This might be a good time to check if your shell host actually permits users running eggdrops (or irc robots/background processes) in the first place.

Unfortunately, the answer remains the same. Someone or something is actively killing your eggdrop. Being a virtual private server, the system admins could easily have some service to terminate "unwanted" processes from the host. I suppose this could also be a matter of resource limitations.
You could try investigate system-logs and kernel messages (dmesg) for further clues.

There is no discussion required here. The issue is your bot is being killed. What is killing it is pretty much moot. You need to READ your services "terms of service". Otherwise known as their TOS. A google search can find the below quote pretty easily. This sums up how 99.99% of companies operate.[quote=""the web""]I doubt any major web hosting company would allow eggdrops on their VPS or dedicated plans, I'm sure they probably have something about IRC app(lication)s in their ToS. If it's not being used maliciously, I'm sure you wouldn't have a problem find(ing) a reliable provider (somewhere else).[/quote]
