What you want to be using is Apache::DBI. Sounds like someone made a bad attempt at making their own cached connections in the code you have. Apache::DBI handles everything transparently for you. But you are going to have to dig in and get rid of all the caching stuff that is currently in your

Hi everyone, I'm fairly new to mod_perl but have been working with perl for a few years now. I have a site which connects to postgres, no idea whether it uses persistent connections or not, as the custom modules built prior to me looking at it goes pretty deep. Connections to postgres are made t
