I'm not shure, but i think it is not a bug. I think a connection is only successfull when it is closed by the same entity who opened it. If it was mysql closing the connection, then it should increment its counter of connection_errors. It tells that someone opened a connection and did not close it. It's only an opinion. -- Diana Soares --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
