Re: PostgreSQL + PHP 4.2x buggy with Apache?

In PHP, you might also want to add 'set_time_limit(0);' to make sure your
PHP script runs until completion.

It sounds like you have a problem with the persistent PostgreSQL
connections used by PHP and Apache. Change pg_pconnect to pg_connect and
restart Apache to close the existing persistent connections. My experience
is that pg_pconnect is not as robust as pg_connect and not worth the
increase in speed.
