Hello everyone,

after the suggestion from this mailing list,
I have installed pgbouncer at my
CentOS 5.6 / 64 bit server and
activated its transaction mode:

[databases]
pref = host=/tmp user=pref password=XXX dbname=pref

[pgbouncer]
logfile = /var/log/pgbouncer.log
pidfile = /var/run/pgbouncer/pgbouncer.pid
;listen_addr = 127.0.0.1
listen_port = 6432
unix_socket_dir = /tmp

auth_type = md5
auth_file = /var/lib/pgsql/data/global/pg_auth

pool_mode = transaction

server_check_delay = 10

max_client_conn = 200
default_pool_size = 20

log_connections = 0
log_disconnections = 0
log_pooler_errors = 1

Now the server stopped crashing even
at peak times and "pg_top -I" only shows
few simultaneous commands active:

last pid: 13476;  load avg:  4.03,  4.02,  4.29;       up 2+22:57:32
                                                  19:37:05

12761 postgres  16    0 1173M  180M sleep   3:16 20.22%  5.94%
postgres: pref pref [local] idle

And in the /var/log/pgbouncer.log shows:

2011-06-19 19:28:05.772 3031 LOG Stats: 29 req/s, in 4087 b/s, out

But I have a new (not so bad problem) -

My php script displaying player stats:
http://preferans.de/user.php?id=OK493430777441
will sometimes exit with the PDO error:

  SQLSTATE[26000]: Invalid sql statement name:
  7 ERROR: prepared statement
  "pdo_stmt_00000016" does not exist

When I reload it, it works ok.

The SQL statements called by the script are:

try {
        # enable persistent connections and throw exception on any errors
        $options = array(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION,
PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => true);
        $db = new PDO('pgsql:host=' . DBHOST . ' port=6432; dbname=' .
DBNAME, DBUSER, DBPASS, $options);

        $sth = $db->prepare('
select first_name, city, avatar, login > logout as online
from pref_users where id=?
');
        $sth->execute(array($id));

and so on - a dozen SELECT statements.

I wonder, if this "prepared statement not found"
problem is caused by transaction mode of pgbouncer
and if there is a way to workaround that?

And I can't switch to pgbouncer session mode,
because it will hang at peak time - tried that already.

Thank you
Alex

P.S. Here again my specs:

pgbouncer-1.3.4-1.rhel5
postgresql-libs-8.4.8-1PGDG.rhel5
compat-postgresql-libs-4-1PGDG.rhel5
postgresql-8.4.8-1PGDG.rhel5
postgresql-server-8.4.8-1PGDG.rhel5
postgresql-devel-8.4.8-1PGDG.rhel5
php53-pgsql-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1
php53-pdo-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1
php53-5.3.3-1.el5_6.1

I have 4GB RAM and postgresql.conf contains:
max_connections = 50
shared_buffers = 1024MB
#listen_addresses = 'localhost' (i.e. unix socket only)
