That's really interesting because on Apache-1 you don't have threads if your application (or one of the third party modules you are using) doesn't start any in the background. > > or sometimes it's: > > A thread exited while 2 threads were running, <Reader> line 7. > > The version of Perl is "v5.8.4 built for i386-linux-thread-multi".

I prefer it because everthing is under my control and you can gain much speed e.g. compile your perl without thread-support will bring 10%-20% speed enhancement. I'd suggest to install your own perl into e.g. /opt/perl-5.8.7 leaving your old perl untouched, compile your own apache(not a must) and mod_perl (a must because the debian-mod_perl is not using your new perl) and install all missing modules using the cpan-shell. You have to install all modules because I think you cannot use old ones when your perl-5.8.4 is threaded and your new perl-5.8.7 is not threaded because they are not binary compatible but I could be mistaken here.
