1) Wasn't this problem corrected by using the ping() method? 2) I'm hoping for a clue why Apache::DBI is there but not giving any messages or having any connections in Apache::Status 3) Avoiding timeout doesn't help when the network hiccups and drops existing connections (I don't admin the network, can't change that) > This may not be related to your current problem, so YMMV. Doesn't appear helpful, but I appreciate some response :) -- Reporting bugs: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html
