Your script works fine, but I still get the same error.
I can duplicate this same error with a non-hash ref like this.
$sth=$dbh->prepare("select param1,param2 from sometable");
$sth->execute;
while (($param1,$param2) = $sth->fetchrow_array) {
...... do something with them .
}
My concern is, does the error fetchrow_hashref or _array cause any problems
with the server, postmaster, postgres, etc. I am about to turn a site on
with lots of traffic and I don't want to crash because of these errors.
Thank you
