Question: What MPM modules do you provide at the moment?

I have gotten the FromDual modules and templates working on 2 of our 3 database servers. The last one, I keep getting the below errors in the FromDual log file:

3387:2013-02-05 12:55:51.296 - INFO: FromDual Performance Monitor for MySQL (0.9) run started.
3387:2013-02-05 12:55:51.297 - INFO: FromDualMySQLagent::setAgentLock
3387:2013-02-05 12:55:51.298 - WARN: Agent Lock file /tmp/FromDualMySQLagent.lock already exists.
3387:2013-02-05 12:55:51.299 - WARN: Another agent with PID 3366 (our PID is 3387) is running. We will abort now.

Are there any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thank you!
