[Pgpool-general] pgpool error

Hello. I've installed pgpool 3.1.1. Can anyone help me with this error
message and what it means. I can't find any description anywhere. Also, my
master/secondary run fine with replication and load balancing for a few
hours running standard SQL SELECT'S, INSERT'S, and UPDATE'S. However, it
degenerates to the secondary when it's hit with traffic (these queries use
LOCK tablename to make sure data is in sync. Does this error have anything
to do with it? Or do I need to implement a locking function on pgpool?
Thanks in advance.


"read_kind: kind does not match between backends master(69) secondary(84)"
