Yes. It's the same way using it. There is database handle created in startup.pl. The startup.pl file is configured in <Perl> block. The "connection lost contact" error only happens when either in "apachectl stop" or when a child process exits.

Are you using it the same way, with a DBI connection in a <Perl> block? I haven't seen anyone else mention a problem with it in Apache 1. - Perrin On Wed, Jun 12, 2013 at 5:05 PM, Xinhuan Zheng <xzh...@christianbook.com<mailto:xzh...@christianbook.com>> wrote: Hi Perrin, Today I tested the Apache-DBI 1.12 with Apache 1.3.42 and mod_perl 1. We have to use mod_perl 1 in some situations. There is same issue when startup.pl<http://startup.pl> has created database handle. This database handle gets cached and forked across child processes. With debugging turned on, there isn't "skipping connection during server startup, read the docu !!" message at all. It appears this new version only works with Apache2 but not Apache1. Is that possible to fix it with Apache1?
