[Handel] mp1 database connectivity

[tom.kirkpatrick at virusbtn.com]

I had this problem before... or at least, I think it's the same thing.

Handel::ConfigReader reads the connection settings from httpd.conf. You 
need to ensure that you do the PerlSetVar statements BEFORE you preload 
your handel app. Oh... but I just re-read your post and it seems you 
already tried that.

damn it!
