I've seen exactly this.
In our case, it was the motherboard watchdog which had a bad temperature sensor. The sensor kept insisting that the motherboard was overheating, so it shut the OS, and therefore the computer, down. The shutdown logs looked similar to yours, like someone had come along and run the 'shutdown' command somewhere. When first powered on, the computer would run for 20 minutes or so before shutting down, but if you were persistant it would start the shutdown process almost before the OS boot was finished.
Go into your motherboard management (BMC, IPMI, iLO, whatever) and check to see if there are any "events" in the logs.
Another thing you might consider is if you have a remote access card that allows shutdowns. The chances are slim you would have another admin shutting down your server but it never hurts to check.
I would guess power button as well, but it's possible that something else is causing it. Is this machine connected to a UPS? Are there any other people who have root access on the machine? Can you check lastlog to see if anyone else was connected when it was shutdown? What services is this machine running, and are there any published vulnerabilities on these services?
If it IS the power button, you might be able to unplug it from the motherboard to test it.
I don't see anything in your logs prior to switching to runlevel 0, so it sounds to me like the OS thinks it's being told to shut down correctly (ie. by a power button press)
I'd expect some sort of error message to explain why it was shutdown. You could see who was logged on to it at the time it was shutdown with "last". It could be that the server is overheating and shutting down to protect itself. I'm not sure what process would do that on CentOS. As far as the power button is concerned, there should be a log about that, but you could try stopping acpid and see if it still shuts down. That would rule out any ACPI events.
Have you checked with any users that have access to this host? See if one of them is shutting down the computer?
Check /root/.bash_history, /home/*/.bash_history and other similar files to see if one of them shows a shutdown message.
Also check /var/log/secure to see if someone used sudo to shut it down.
You need to go further back in your logs, to where you see the shutdown process start and look a bit back from there.
The last log may also help. You may be able to see who's on the box if anyone, at the time it's going down. In fact all your logs should be examined.
Its interesting that it's all being logged as
mail
.More log examination required.
Based on the acpi logs it looks like the system is receiving input from the power button to shut down. I would suspect that either the button is being pushed accidentally or there is a hardware problem involved.
Also: You should be able to modify the behavior in response to the power button event by editing
/etc/acpi/events/power_button
. Note that the path may be slightly different on CentOS 5, but that's the common location.
