I just thought, all this can be a result of dumping of one big base
(~6G). But it's still not clear what memory limit was reached.
I still continue observing the situation.

Is it a bug or my mistake in server configuration?

2008-11-10 Thread Alexey Vlasov
Hi.

One client from my shared hosting periodically informs me about an
error:

DBI connect('database,...)
failed: Can't create a new thread (errno 12); if you are not out of
available memory, you can consult the manual for a possible OS-dependent
bug at ...

There's nothing suspicious in the MySQL error-log.

Re: Is it a bug or my mistake in server configuration?

2008-11-10 Thread Curtis Maurand


I've been having the same trouble in a Xen virtual machine.  After about 
an hour and a half, mysql will be consuming 100% of cpu.  There is 
nothing wrong with the tables.  I'm assuming its a dynamic vs. fix 
amount of memory available to mysql.  I'm guaranteed x amount of ram, 
but that might get reduced due to server load.  I'm assuming mysql 
doesn't like having ram taken away from it and get into a tizzy about it.


I've been forced to restart mysql hourly in order to get smooth operation.

You are dealing with the impact, not with the reason. It can only be a
workaround.

Did you have a look at you machine regarding paging activity?

Re: [Fwd: Re: Is it a bug or my mistake in server configuration?]

2008-11-10 Thread John Daisley
Make sure the script or application querying the database is closing
connections when it has finished with them. Theres an awful lot of badly
coded scripts out there, especially php scripts, which keep the
connections to the server open and eating away at server resources long
after they could have released the thread back to the server.

I doubt that the problem is in that otherwise every second user would
complain of some errors, and now only 1 from about 2000 users of this
