Hi Sam,

You should ask this question on the pe-users mailing list.

With that said, the error is occurring on the master when compiling the
catalog for the node. I would start by looking at syslog on the master, and
if that doesn''t help, try adding the --debug option to the PE
master''s
config.ru, and restarting pe-httpd.
