i have a module that creates 1 extra process where it processes stuff in a loop.

on some condition i fire a route_event with a fakemsg and its up to the user of the module to take action, it tries to work like dispatcher module or htable (mod-init) events.

the problem that i have is that, if i call some function on some module that performs a database action, the connection is null when it calls use_table.

in this case i'm making this call

event_route[my_module:my_event]

{

 $var(my_uri) = <<result of some operations>>;

 pres_refresh_watchers("$var(my_uri)", "dialog", 1);

}

presence module makes the call to use_table but this call fails because the connection is null. presence module is working fine besides this.

if i make this call inside event_route[dispatcher:dst-up] it works.

i think that dispatcher fires the event inside a callback from a registered timer, so, i think (may be wrong) that it comes from a different process ?

i wonder if i'm missing something from child_init ? need to register something ?

thanks for your help.
