Does anyone know why I can't seem to increase the max_connections variable for mysql on debian? I'm running version 3.23.40-1 of all of the mysql packages.
[safe_mysqld]
err-log = /var/log/mysql.err
open-files-limit = 8192
[mysqld]
user = mysql
pid-file = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
port = 3306
log = /var/log/mysql.log
basedir = /usr
datadir = /var/lib/mysql
tmpdir = /tmp
language = /usr/share/mysql/english
skip-locking
#log-bin
#server-id = 201
#skip-networking
set-variable = key_buffer=64M
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=16M
set-variable = thread_stack=8M
set-variable = max_connections=2048
set-variable = max_connect_errors=100000
set-variable = table_cache=256
set-variable = sort_buffer=16M
set-variable = record_buffer=4M
set-variable = net_buffer_length=64K
set-variable = long_query_time=2
set-variable = wait_timeout=30
set-variable = interactive_timeout=30
I've looked through the included documentation and tried to dig around on deja and google and can't come up with a reason.
