I'm willing to bet that 1) You're running in a shared environment 2) You're running PHP as a CGI/FastCGI They're likely NOT MySQL anything, but rather the result of your PHP CGI crapping out -- either an over-memory, over-cpu or general I/O stall situation. For curiosity's sake, you could follow up with your provider, or, if they provide gdb along with your hosting plan, SSH/telnet to your host and run gdb on the core files. In any event, unless they keep cropping up, you likely can safely ignore them. -- -Doug _______________________________________________ wp-testers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
