I can be no help to you at all, but I can tell you that I getting an error message that relates to the GLibc problem that is document everyplace although there doesn't seem to be any fix for me.. Maybe what I've gone through to date can help you make some choices (I think my next one can only be freeBSD).
I get the wonderful "DBI connect('...',...) failed: Lost connection to MySQL server during query" But ONLY when there is a high load on the machines, any other time it runs fine.. I started with a brand new RH 8, mySql 3.23.54 and Apache 2.0 on a good P4 with 1 gig of ram. Totally removed mySql, downloaded same version from mysql.com, installed it had the same problem. Downgraded GLibc, had the same problem. Downgraded DBI Ran mysld with the skip-name-resolve option, same problem. Used a different Nic in the machine, used a different switch, different cable etc. - same problem. (BTW, there is low IO usage and no network errors or collisions or anything like that). In short we did everything we could do except OS, Apache and hardware.. So be built a brand new machine and this time around.. mySql 3.23.54 from mysql.com, RH 7.3 and Apache 1.3 All the same things happen, no matter what we do... We still can't find any reason for it.. Right now our fix is lousy round robin using both machines to keep load low enough so the error doesn't happen. -Chris >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Konstantin Sorokin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >> Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2003 6:10 AM >> To: mysql users >> Subject: MySQL & RH 8.0 >> >> >> Hi! >> >> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=77467 >> >> Has anybody working and tested solution for this kind of >> problem with MySQL ? >> >> 1) upgrade to glibc 2.3.1 from phoebe RH beta seems to be fix >> problem, but I conside it to be too dangeros on prodaction machine... >> Has anybody success story with that upgrade ? :) >> >> 2) upgrade to newer version of MySQL.
