I think it's from Postgres, not Perl. Try Googling for "message type" "arrived from server while idle" > It seems to have got something to do with many apache children > accessing the postgres database I'm sure that's right, I think you're confusing Postgres somehow. There are suspicions about threads in some of the messages that Google found with the query above. I've never used Postgres so I wouldn't know where to point you, but have you checked the Postgres docs for that message? There are a few references such as this http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/pgsql/src/interfaces/libpq/fe-protocol3.c fairly late on in the Google results. > The solution David and others found is not applicable to my problem > because I'm already running apache 1.3.27 (not 1.3.28 which seems to > be causing this trouble) I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here. At the beginning of your message it looked like you were using 1.3.27, not 1.3.28. Are you saying that the problem is present with a 1.3.27 Apache but not with 1.3.28? If so then could you not simply stay with 1.3.27? 73, Ged.
