Hi, I have a server which has been running for about a year now. It started with kernel 2.4.19 and mysql 3.x it has since been continually upgraded so that it is now kernel 2.4.20 and mysql 4.0.13. The server is a Compaq server with dual Pentium II (Deschutes) 400MHz 512Kb cache CPUs, 320Mb RAM and SCSI drives. The OS is Gentoo Linux.
>From the beginning it has behaved strangely - connections to mysql (be that with the mysql textclient or from PHP) fails about 2 out of 3 times in periods. Some times there are no problems, other times it's almost impossible to connect. This behavior has been consistent from the start, so it has been a problem when running both mysql 3.x and 4.0.x. I have monitored the servers load and the loads are the same in the periods when it fails as in the periods when it doesn't. I have tried monitoring the mysql logs, but no entries show up upon the failed connection attempts. No other services malfunctions in this way, or indeed at all on the server. I have run out of ideas on how to debug this problem, can anybody here help me? -- Anders -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GCS/O d--@ s:+ a-- C++ UL+++$ P++ L+++ E- W+ N(+) o K? w O-- M- V PS+ PE@ Y+ PGP+ t 5 X R+ tv+ b++ DI+++ D+ G e- h !r y? ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ PGPKey: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x8BFECB41 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
