Might have to do with this entry in /var/log/news/expire.log:

expireover start Tue Dec 29 04:33:54 UTC 2020: ( -z/var/log/news/expire.rm -Z/var/log/news/expire.lowmark)
    Article lines processed    28740
    Articles dropped               0
    Overview index dropped         0
expireover end Tue Dec 29 04:42:08 UTC 2020
lowmarkrenumber begin Tue Dec 29 04:42:08 UTC 2020: (/var/log/news/expire.lowmark)
lowmarkrenumber end Tue Dec 29 04:42:08 UTC 2020
expire begin Tue Dec 29 04:42:38 UTC 2020: (-v1)
    expire: dbzsync: putcore failed
    expire: can't dbzclose /var/lib/news/history.n No space left on device
    expire: dbzinit: dbzinit already called once
    expire: can't dbzinit /var/lib/news/history Success
    expire: dbz: fseeko failure in putconf: Bad file descriptor
    /usr/lib/news/bin/news.daily: line 401:  7990 Segmentation fault      expire -v1
expire end Tue Dec 29 06:26:55 UTC 2020
all done Tue Dec 29 06:26:56 UTC 2020

Or maybe with the fact that my /var/lib/news/history contains over 6 Mio lines (never knew that I ever had this many articles on my news server).

Anyway, it seems to me that the expiration process is failing somewhere on the way with a segfault, and I guess that leaves inn2 in an unresponsive state.
What is also strange is that a manual restart with 
service inn2 restart
solves the problem, but the same called from a cronjob does not.

And for this line:
expire: can't dbzclose /var/lib/news/history.n No space left on device,
there are 390 Mb space left on the device, so probably it is just not enough.

Maybe I could just skip expiration altogether (since I do not use it anyway) ? Or maybe I just need a bigger hd ?
