Hi, I have two questions that I wanted to ask for your assistance: Q1. When looking at fastcgi.crash.log I keep seeing the following: [07/Jul/2008:03:56:25 :: 20413] asked to terminate immediately [07/Jul/2008:03:56:25 :: 20413] terminated by explicit exit [07/Jul/2008:04:18:26 :: 8207] starting Is that normal? Q2. The cart sessions are stored in the database and that table is getting quite big. Should I leave it as is? or should I do anything? Thanks, Elle ---

I do seem to recall that apache reaps inactive fastcgi processes. > Q2. The cart sessions are stored in the database and that table is > getting quite big. Should I leave it as is? or should I do anything? Most people delete old sessions periodically Fred
