I tried opening a mysql connection outside the functions in my perl script then using that handle through out the perl script. I am getting the following error...

Error: rlm_perl: perl_embed:: module = /usr/local/etc/raddb/modules/billing.pl , func = accounting exit status= DBD::mysql::db prepare failed: handle 2 is owned by thread 9b19fc8 not current thread 9cfdac8 (handles can't be shared between threads and your driver may need a CLONE method added) at /usr/local/etc/raddb/modules/billing.pl line 214.

After some recent changes to my rlm_perl perl script I am getting the
following messages all the time...

Tue Aug  8 08:08:50 2006 : Error: WARNING: Unresponsive child (id

  Something's blocking the thread.

  
Each function in the perl script opens a mysql connection then closes it
before finishing the function. Could this be the problem? Should I
create an initial connection and use it throughout the script?
    

  Yes.  That would probably help a lot.

  The "unresponsive child" message comes out after about 20 seconds of
problems, which is a pretty serious problem.
