Eric,
Thanks for the quick reply, and aplogies for not providing full info.
I do have these set up, here is my full configuration:

# -*- encoding : utf-8 -*-
worker_processes 4
working_directory "."
listen 3000
timeout 120

preload_app true

before_fork do |server, worker|
  defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and ActiveRecord::Base.connection.disconnect!
end


after_fork do |server, worker|
  defined?(ActiveRecord::Base) and ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection
end

Best Regards,

Avner Cohen
