Hi all, I have installed httpd-2.2.3, apr-1.2.7 and apr-util-1.2.7 with MySQL support (using MySQL-5.0.24a). When I start the server authentication works well. After some time (don't know much) when I try to logon I get error 500. When I restart Apache, authentication is working again. Below is an error log from start to end (including apachectl restart and succeeding at last) with LogLevel set to debug. The access log doesn't have any useful information except one line reporting error 500. As can be read in thread "Apache 2.2.3 and MySQL 5.0.24a", I have recompiled all of this a number of times, each time with the same problem. Anybody know why after some time DBD cannot lookup the username anymore?
