Second level tie failed

[Csongor Fagyal]

Hi guys,

I am having a re-occuring but random error. We have a few sites using Apache::ASP, and all of them randomly produce an "Internal Server Error". After refreshing, the error message disappears (then comes up again later).

In the log, I can see the following:
MLDBM error: Second level tie failed, "File exists" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/MLDBM/Sync.pm line 214


I have tried using Data::Dumper instead of Storable, also tried DB_File, but the same thing occures again and again. Anybody seen something similar? What can I do?

My config is: Apache 1.3.27, Apache::ASP 2.49, mod_perl 1.27, Redhat 8.0 w/ 2.4.18 kernel, MLDBM 2.01, Perl 5.8.0.

The error.log in more details is:
