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 2966633392) for request 28 Tue Aug 8 08:08:50 2006 : Error: WARNING: Unresponsive child (id 2977528752) for request 27 Tue Aug 8 08:08:50 2006 : Error: WARNING: Unresponsive child (id 2988153776) for request 25 Usually after a lot of these radius will crash and will need to be restarted. I was receiving the sql running out of connections error but I am not getting those anymore after tuning my tables. I don't believe at this point that this is a mysql issue however any suggestions would be appreciated. I do access mysql from my perl script so that could be the problem. 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? Thanks Guys, I know you will know what the problem is.
