If you are using Linux the following should help:
du -hs /var/lib/mysql/

Hi,

Normally a simple "rpm -ivh mysql-3.23.40-1.rpm" (or whatever the file
is called) should do it. If it doesn't, can you post the output of rpm
to this list?
Did you download the right package? Which distribution do you use?


BTW: Perhaps your distribution has a version numer of 7.1, but the
newest Linux kernel is 2.4.7 ;)

There are 2x256 MB and 2x128MB sticks in there, all at a spped of 133.
Please don't ask me what kind of motherboard we're running in there, but
that shouldn't be a problem.

Updatedb is running around midnight, but I just found out that
cron.hourly could be a problem in there as we experienced another crash
tonight which was at 1:59, the crash yesterday occured at 4:59. Always
around the full hour. I've tried and disabled cron.hourly for now,
hoping it will help. Seems like it wasn't a problem of mysql, it was
just mysql which was killed and thus appeared in the kerne ltrace or
something.

We sure will, but the system is located about 500 kilometers from where
our bureau is, so I hope it will stay alive at least over the weekend
:-)

Ok, you won! ;)

Re: Newbie need help on MySQL on RH 7.1

Hi,
try executing the following command:
ps ax|grep mysql

If the server is running you should get an output like:
351 ?S  0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/safe_mysqld
403 ?S  0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld
443 ?S  0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld
444 ?S  0:00 /usr/libexec/mysqld
4152 pts/2S  0:00 grep mysql

If there is no such output or just "grep mysql" try executing
"/etc/init.d/mysql start" to start the server manually.

Re: Mysql performance monitoring?

2001-07-13 Thread Mario Witte

Cricket looks great, I think I'll have to try it ASAP.
For the moment I just found a utility called mrtg-mysql which puts
mysql-stats into mrtg. Statistics aren't very extensive but enough for the
moment.

Mysql performance monitoring?

2001-07-13 Thread Mario Witte

Hello,
I'm searching for a tool which will provide statistics about the usage of a
mysql-server like avg queries/minute, cpu load etc.

I've tried mysqler and liked it, but couldn't get it to start as a daemon.
Are there any similar tools out there?

Thanks in Advance,

Hello,

meanwhile we found a solution to the problem. After updating all server and
clients to the mysql 3.23.39 the server stopped spawning those dead threads
and about an hour later all dead threads had timed out.
We still don't know why the problem occured so suddenly (the system had
worked for weeks without any interruption before), but it doesn't occur
anymore.

Many "Unauthenticatd Users"

2001-07-09 Thread Mario Witte

Hello,

we are running a mysql-3.23-39 server under Suse 7.1 which has to do a very
high number of insert-queries (somewhere around 600 queries/minute).

But since yesterday the server kepps on spawing processes which are
reported to belong to "Unauthenticated user" and in state "Login". This
continues until max_connections is reached and then the server quits
without further error messages. (Neither in the error log nor in the
query-log).

We have already tried reinserting all data from a dump, using a different
server and different mysql-version.
It shouldn't be a load problem, because before the problem occured the
server (a Compaq Proliant with a 933 Mhz Xeon cpu) was running on a load
average below 0.10.

Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks in Advance,
