We've never seen it happen. Do you have enough RAM allocated to W*SSL?Also, you MUST be careful of the implications of running 2 plugins (one for SSL, one for non-SSL). Each plugin will have its own complete copy of the database, and if you change a database using the non-SSL server, then the SSL plugin won't know about the changes. The only time this scheme works is for read-only databases. Until WebSTAR provides support for sharing a single plugin, I recommend you use the CGI in cases where SSL+non-SSL are in use on the same box.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
