Hi all, I have put myself in a bit of a pickle, but hope someone here can help me.
In my handler I have two global vars ($dbh and $dbh_itemdb). I set these in a <%once> clause like: $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$base:localhost", "$user", "$pass"); $dbh_itemdb = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$item:localhost", "$user", "$pass"); If I comment out the 2nd line everything works (besides looking up items). If I enable the 2nd line I get "Premature end of script headers" for each request I make. I then tried the same code base on a different server, and it works! (as I would have thought would be the case on my primary server). I have compared versions and found DBI in v1.56 on my primary box which I then upgraded to v1.60.1 but on the secondary box I have v1.57 and didn't do anything subsequently. I also recompiled DBD-mysql after upgrading DBI. I also tried using connect_cached, but I read in docs that DBI already does this for me, so I left things as they were in that area (but tried both - naturally). My system is FreeBSD 6.2-p10 with Mason v1.35, Apache 2.2.4_2, mod_perl v2.0.3, and MySQL v5.0.41. The background for even splitting my database in the first place for this site is, that I want to make separate backup of the data. The 1st database is the vital one which I'm backing up every hour. The 2nd database is just an inventory list which I can generate from flat files whenever I want - hence I don't really need a backup (that often) - and it is HUGE in size compared to the dynamic content in the 1st DB. Any hints are much appreciated Thank you in advance Regards Nicolai Schlenzig, Denmark ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
