unable to write to logs all of a sudden

several applications are unable to start ,stating they cant write to log : lighttpd , centreon.

permission on log folders are fine (they are now 777 since) , strangely nagios and mysql start fine, but for lighty for example i still get:

Code:
 2010-04-19 13:02:10: (log.c.118) opening errorlog '/var/log/lighttpd/lighttpd.error.log' failed: Permission denied

I tried both www user and nagios -makes no difference. centrion gives same error

Code:
cannot create /var/log/centreon/centcore.log: Permission denied

Everything was working fine - no new apps were installed, it just happened out of the blue and i have no idea what might be causing it at this point.

Additionally lsof gives this error

Code:
/usr/src/sys/sys/conf.h:141: error: expected declaration specifiers or '...' before 'vm_memattr_t'
 
Let's see the output of both # df -h and # mount

First thing that comes to mind is you may have filesystem errors, which forced your filesystem into ro (read-only) mode.
