"Could not spawn child process" error
I have a site that runs 3 databases in the same times (all dbman), they all works fine except when there is to much acces to the databases(about 5 requests in the same time), I have a server error : "Could not spawn child process"

Your server is overloaded or out of memory, and the web server can not create a new process to run the CGI program.

Either tone down some of the scripting, split it onto several machines, or beef up the server.

Cheers,
