I am trying to set up a persistent connection to a handful of postgres dbs at startup using Apache::DBI (also using mod_perl) Here is what I am doing but I am not sure how to check if it's working right.

in httpd.conf I have
PerlRequire startup.pl

in startup.pl I load all the necessary perl modules and also include the lines

use Apache::DBI;
Apache::DBI->connect_on_init( host, login, password);

This doesn’t seem to make any difference. I was expecting to see database connections when I restarted apache and that all queries would get handled by these connections. Is this a wrong assumption? What is the expectation and what would be a good test when setting up persistent connections to a postgres db?
Thanks much
Salem
