It looks like the server restarted all of the services automatically after 2 minutes and it all seems to be working ok now .
There's a script in place that restarts things if errors crop up, then if that isn't fixed after a few mins the server should auto-reboot, then if that fails the hosting company is notified after about 15 mins. Then if that fails, I need to dig out the backups
