Okay, thanks for the report and the patch. We definitely want this functionality to work. I haven't used Apache::DBI recently, but the current code was working fine for me on mp1. Can you file this bug report and patch on the RT queue for Apache::DBI on CPAN? That would make it easier to track. Also, this is only an issue if you use PerlPostConfigRequire, isn't it? I thought you said in your previous mail that it was still okay if you use PerlRequire to load your startup.pl (and are doing database work there). - Perrin
