(He's Russian you know:) Does the handler which does a simple SELECT *really* work or is it fooling? I don't think I've seen any particular known DBD problem which would cause your trouble. Given that one of your handlers does work, to me it seems unlikely to be a DBD driver problem, unless perhaps (apart from the simple SELECT statement) your driver is trying to log something via mod_perl and Apache. Otherwise I would suspect Apache/modperl or even the OS. Do your other Apache logs ever reach 2GB and, if so, does the same thing happen? Is there anything in the OS logs which might help? I'd echo Stas' request - If you find an explanation, please let us know. 73, Ged. PS: What do you do with 2GB logs???
