Hi, I have had a site working for the last 2 years and have had no problems until at the weekend I replace my database server with a newer one. The database migration went like a dream and I had the whole db changed over in 1 hour.
Since the upgrade I have been getting the following error message sporadically. ERROR: current transaction is aborted, queries ignored until end of transaction block I have the following setup Webserver: Apache 1.3.27 (Redhat 7.2) PHP 4.1.2 Database server (old): Postgres 7.1.3 Database server (new): Postgres 7.3.4 The PHP scripts have not changed. I am using PEAR::DB for database access. I think it is the PEAR::DB that is actually making the transactions because some times the error message some times gets generated when I don't even have a transaction. Not too sure about that though. The funny thing is, when I first start up the web-server I don't get any error messages and the site carries on working fine just as it did when using the old database server. However, after about an hour. I suddenly get 10 errors a minute from my site (average of course) with the majority of pages still accessing fine. After a bit more time, this doubles to 20 errors a minute. If I carry on leaving the site, I eventually get error messages every second. The error message seem to be generated from completely unrelated bits of my code. When I restart Apache the error messages go away and the site functions as normal. My theory is, since I am using persistent connections in PHP, a connection is some how becoming...unstable...for the want of a better word. That connection then returns an error on every single request. To put my theory to test, I have turned off the persistent connections on my site and everything appears to be working fine now. I now need to work out where to go from here as my server load is high and I would prefer to use persistent connections. Has anyone experienced any similar problems with changing Postgres versions? Do I need to upgrade my PHP on the web-server as the RedHat postgres the PHP was built against was Postgres 7.1.3? Anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix this?
