Hi, I looked into the archive and I coun't find anything that looks like my problem. I was using mysql 3.22.x without no problems, but I needed the replication feature, so I upgraded it to 3.23.36. Where was my scenario : http server. apache 1.3.19 + mod_perl 2.25 + php 3.0.18. sql1 -> mysql 3.23.36 (server id 1, this is the Master RW) sql2 -> mysql 3.23.36 (server id 2, slave RO) Then I wrote a new function into my php scripts to redirect some selects to sql2 server, and it worked just well. In this very moment, everything is running just fine, except for many connection timeout/error reading communication packets in my sql2.err logfile. As it says on the manual I recompiled my apache suite to use the new mysql libraries. Then all my php3 scripts tried to connect on both servers. Even if the scripts has NO calls to server 2, it tried to connect on it. I saw thousands of permission denied entrys in my sql2 server, because sql2 server has diferent usernames than sql1. Any tip on it? I'm using persistente connections in php and php is compiled with enable-track-vars. I really can figure out if it is a mysql lib problem or an php3 problem. Thanks alot and sorry for the bad english..
