<div>Interesting. At our other data center (not EC2) we get the read_startup_packet error with our load balancer health check. But with EC2 we get the “unable to read data” and the child process shutdown. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also we’re using 3.4.1 – I wonder if the behavior is the same with 3.3.1. I’ll give it a shot. </div>

<div dir="ltr">I can see some messages like this also (with the negative packet length), I'm not sure what the difference is - but I'm 99% sure they are all coming from an AWS ELB.

</span>Interesting.<br>
<br>
When I connect to pgpool-II localhost with telnet, I see these:<br>
<br>
2015-03-17 08:15:50: pid 6436: ERROR: failed while reading startup packet<br>
2015-03-17 08:15:50: pid 6436: DETAIL: incorrect packet length (-720903)<br>
<br>
This is git HEAD (almost same as 3.4.1).<br>
