Hello. I am referring to instructions to correct a problem involving 1000+ concurrent connections. The relevant section in the MySQL manual is Installing MySQL/System-specific Issues/Linux Notes (All Linux Versions). The relevant paragraphs, from the manual, are as follows: “If you plan to have 1000+ concurrent connections, you will need to make some changes to LinuxThreads, recompile it, and relink MySQL against the new `libpthread.a'. Increase PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX in `sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/bits/local_lim.h' to 4096 and decrease STACK_SIZE in `internals.h' to 256 KB. Note that MySQL will not be stable with around 1000 connections if STACK_SIZE is the default of 2 MB. If you have glibc 2.1.3-65 or newer, you don't have to increase STACK SIZE; You can instead just change the thread_stack value for mysqld.” I am running Red Hat Linux 7.0 on an Athlon system (i386). Here's my problem: I have absolutely NO experience using the make command, but everyone I talk to assumes I am extremely adept at using it. Here is a collage of questions I have: -- How do I recompile libpthread.a? -- What files are included in libpthread.a? I know that local_lim.h and internals.h are, but what else? -- Do I have to use the make command to recompile libpthread.a? If so, how do I do it? If someone could refer me to a basic manual on how to use the make command (man pages don't cut the mustard, and I can't seem to find documentation elseware) I would greatly appreciate it. Better yet: if someone could give me TOTALLY UNAMBIGUOUS directions for recompiling libpthread.a, I would be eternally grateful. I'm in kind of a hurry, and the less I have to deal with make, the better. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
