Hi Expert, I am using the PERL language with the PostgreSQL database and in a couple of database function, we are using the plperl as language. We are basically calling the SOAP API in the function, however yesterday we faced the issue where PARL had sent the SIGALRM signal and my database got crashed. Can you please review and help me to resolve the issue, either by a code change or a configuration change. 


CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION sendclaimcoversheet(
    text,
    text)
  RETURNS integer AS
$BODY$

    use strict;
    use warnings;
    use SOAP::Lite;
    use Try::Tiny;
    use Time::Piece;

    my $first = $_[0];
    my $second = $_[1];
    try
    {
        my $host = `hostname`; 
        my $rv = spi_exec_query("select * from getsprocurl('sendclaimc
+oversheet','".$host."')");
        my $url = $rv->{rows}[0]->{ret_url};
        elog(NOTICE, 'Host Name  ' . $host . ' URL '. $url );
        my $soap = SOAP::Lite->new();
        my $service = $soap->service($url);
        my  $response = $service->sendClaimCoversheet($first, $second 
+);
        return $response;
    }
    catch
    {
        my $ex = $_;
        return 'SOAPFAULT: ' . localtime->strftime('%m/%d/%Y') . ' ' .
+ $ex;
    } 
    $BODY$
  LANGUAGE plperlu VOLATILE STRICT
  COST 100;
ALTER FUNCTION sendclaimcoversheet(text, text)
  OWNER TO postgres;
