That's a good sign. It is trying to cleanly disconnect from the database when you shut down the server.

I think my initial guess was wrong. This is probably just a scoping problem in your code. I suspect you are either putting the session object in a global or using it in a closure. Try to reduce the section of code that uses Apache::Session to a very small example that reproduces this problem and post it here. Also, are you using Apache::Registry?
