Hiya forum.. I have my site powered by MySQL server running on FreeBSD. The site is facing problems when the traffic increases.Database connectivity is through JDBC.My poolman is managing the database connections with 30 connections set, and is growable.People have started getting error when the rush increases...
Error : Communication failure : Bad Handshake. Is there a MySQL server running on the port ............ connectivity error. I suspect the max_connection variable which is default set to 100 reaches and the server refuses further connection.We have probed for any unused database connections hold by the Java.But we have religiously returned the connection back to the poolmanager after its used... I am running my development MySQL server on windows NT. Having gone thru the MySQL manual..for performance tuning the server,we came across many variables which can affect the server performance. So i issue the following commands: c:\> cd mysql\bin start the server c:\>mysqld set the variable c:\>mysqld -O back_log=200 --help Looks like it updates the server..but when i see it thru the WinMySQLAdmin ,after restarting the server again ,it does not reflect there and displays the default settings. We have a production server running....Can any experienced people guide me how to update this server variable onto my remote server. Thanx.
