Environment:
RHEL6, Apache 2.2, SP 2.4.3 from RPM, and MySQL for storage service. Using RH supplied unixODBC and mysql-connector-odbc packages with default odbcinst.ini.

Web Server:Apache 2.2
When using the ODBC storage service with MySQL on RHEL6 shibd crashes periodically. Our web servers are 1/2 RHEL5 and 1/2 RHEL6, with load spread equally between them. The shibd on RHEL5 never crashes. Without using the ODBC storage service shibd never crashes on any server.
The crash frequency in terms of session creation is about once every thousand. It does not appear to be a regular occurrence based on number of sessions since the last crash though. For approximately half the crashes another crash follows within 30 minutes.
Investigating the core files indicates two different failure modes, with MySQL use implicated in both. Attached are traces representing the two failure modes.
Let me know if you require more information.
Thanks.
