[SL] Admin.pl Error In SL 2.8.10

[Luke <sl...@li...>]

I took this to Deiter, but his best advice was that I get a support 
contract, which I can not currently afford to do. We are evaluating 
TinyERP, and I may end up just switching to that; but I figured I would 
give SL one last try, given the new features and such.

I am experiencing the following problem with the admin section of SL 
2.8.10:

When I am logged into admin.pl, and I attempt to add or delete a user, the 
http connection hangs until it times out (several minutes), and I am 
presented with a 500 internal server error.

The Apache2 logs say nothing.  I have tried Postgresql versions 8.2 and 
8.1.

I recently upgraded from 2.6.8, by doing a progressive upgrade through the 
intermediary versions.

While doing this, I ran into an error about a missing function which the 
upgrade script was trying to drop.  Several of them actually, as I removed 
one from the SQL file, another would come up.  Same for some other 
attempts to drop triggers, a problem which the lock/unlock solution 
wouldn't solve.  The upgrade was seemingly successful after I 
removed the things that had already been dropped.

I don't know if this is some how causing my problem now, but any advice 
would be appreciated.

Regards,

Luke
