Dear MySQL,
Yesterday we had a complete lock on our MySQL 4.1.9.
If I connected to it TCP, it would make the connection and hang.
If I connected through the UNIX port, it would report no such file
'mysql.port'.
If I 'kill' or used the stop, nothing would happen.
Eventually I had to 'kill -9'. I don't think we lost any data fortunately.
It had been suggested that our DNS failed prior to this event. I don't
think MySQL uses DNS, but I am not entirely sure.
Would any person know what may have caused this?
If I get a state where a 'kill' will not cause MySQL to exit. Is there
any other know way to ask MySQL to exit cleanly?
Regards,
Ben Clewett.
