Hi Egon, >> 1. I had a look on the Chapter Features/Persistent Database >> connections. There should be explicitly stated, when persistent >> connections are closed or ending: webserver or/and database >> server shutdown. I think, this point is not clear enough.
> Persistent connections are described in other places in the manual. I know, I was talking about this place. (see above: Chapter Features/Persistent Database connections). Again: my only point was that in the chapter Features, under the subsection Persistent Database Connections (not in the mysql-section!) the point is not very clear when persisent connections are closed/dying ..... It happens when the webserver or the database server dies or by shutdown. This point is not very clear in this place. again: only my impression. >> 2. mysql_pconnect: here also should be mentioned, when persistent >> connections are closed. > There is no mysql_pclose() function. Persistent connections would > never die. Exeptions are, if the webserver or database server dies. see above. Friedhelm
