Problem mostly resolved. I was checking my init.d settings (/etc/init.d/httpd) to make sure everything was pointing at the correct httpd environment. All was fine, however, I happended to notice that I got different results depending if I used _service_ or called /etc/init.d/httpd directly: service httpd start (mod_perl lost ENV settings) /etc/init.d/httpd start (worked fine in mod_perl) In the first method, the only ENV variables that made it to the dbitrace.log file were those set and exported in /etc/init.d/functions . Setting them in httpd.conf or via a startup.pl didn't seem to help, but I will experiment further. Thanks for everyone's help on this, Tom __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
