CGI-wrapper: fork() error

I'm trying to run the Codiad IDE with the CGI-wrapper (since I obviously don't want to make my home directory world writable).
It worked fine last night, but today for some reason, it (nor any other PHP) will load, even after restarting the webserver.

The logs show:[
==> /var/log/hiawatha/error.log <==
127.0.0.1|Thu 16 Oct 2014 14:34:26 -0500|/home/james/public_html/Codiad-v.2.3.9/index.php|CGI-wrapper: fork() error
127.0.0.1|Thu 16 Oct 2014 14:34:26 -0500|/home/james/public_html/Codiad-v.2.3.9/index.php|CGI returned 500 Internal Error

Those two lines are written to the log whenever a PHP file is run. (Or, that is, if I attempt to run one.) A phpinfo() page, which also previously loaded fine, also produces the same result.

Hiawatha version: 9.8
Operating System: Arch Linux

P.S., that ^ number is my PGP ID.. I thought it might be a good idea to include that in case of impostors or anything like that.

Restarting the whole computer worked to fix the error, but I'd still like to figure out what's causing it. It's odd that a system reboot fixed it when restarting the server didn't

Well, hope you understand that [i]that's/[i] is hard for me to tell. I wasn't there when it happened...
