This bug happens sporadically. I am using the module with apache 1.3.6.
It seems to happen more frequently after the child processes serve a large number
of requests, but some children can serve tons of requests with no problems.

The error I get is:
PHP 3 Fatal error:  Call to unsupported or undefined function db_write() in global.php on line 30

global.php, which is required at the top of just about every page on my site begins like this:

<?php
if (!isset($GLOBAL_PHP_ALREADY_INCLUDED)) {

  $GLOBAL_PHP_ALREADY_INCLUDED = 1;
  $DEBUG = 0;
  
  function db_read() {
    global $DATABASE_READ;
    mysql_connect($DATABASE_READ,"user","password");
    mysql_select_db("dbname");
  }

  function db_write() {
    global $DATABASE_WRITE;
    mysql_pconnect($DATABASE_WRITE,"user","password");
    mysql_select_db("dbname");
  }

  function db_other() {
    global $DATABASE_OTHER;
    mysql_pconnect($DATABASE_OTHER,"user","password");
    mysql_select_db("dbname");
  }  

  db_write();


-----------

and the error is happening when it gets to the db_write() call. The function has to be defined at that point, since the code that defines it is just a few lines above the function call.

I use these db_*() functions to switch between which database server the php script is talking to as it executes.

This still happens after upgrading to 3.0.8

This went away after upgrading to the CVS version as of 11:47AM EDT 3 June 1999 and stayed away with the 3.0.9 release. 

What was causing the problem?
