Good point. I went with 2.0.63 because the issue appeared when
we attempted to replace the 1.3.x version of apache we are using
with the IBM IHS 6.1 server which is built on 2.0.47 and patched
to 2.0.63. My thinking was to attempt to isolate the issue to
apache or IBM's modification of it. Unfortunately, the problem
appears under both platforms. I have also attempted using
2.2.13 with precisely the same issue.

This is the flow of the process: A user brings up the login screen,
enters their userid and password, and clicks submit. That posts a
call to a cgi script that parses the submission and calls another
script to verify the userid/password and extract that user's job
code from the database, placing that job code in a file to be parsed
by the calling script upon return. The script that verifies the
userid/password calls two compiled programs: one verifies the
userid and password are valid, the other makes the call to the
database to extract the job code. The call to verify the userid
and password succeeds but the call to the database fails.
ScriptLog does not give me anything. The output from the script
is redirected to a file and the failed script does not emit anything
aside from it's stdout message and a return code of 255. The script
executes flawlessly under apache 1.3.x and from the command line as
the same user as under apache. I do not have the source for the
script; it is a compiled application that makes a database call.
Any ideas as to how I can debug this further?
