I don't have an answer, but a comment. This problem with Apache killing processes when the client stops comminucating applies to more that just DBI. This is a more general question and you will probably get better support on one of the comp.perl.* mailing lists. I have a simillar problem (not DBI related) and have not got round to following it up. If you get anywhere with this please let know. -- Simon Oliver
