Re: Help Save MySQL
I have to disagree, your degrading the open community that built MySQL (well supported it anyway). But now that it is doing well, your saying they aren't good enough, after the fact they already built it. Yet it is good enough to for SUN and Oracle to buy. As a small business owner, the last thing I am going to do is service a free product, that will compete with my cash flow product. Get real!! Oracle is not going to rescue MySQL. Oh they are willing take control of it, just so they can dumb it down, and use its code in their own product. If you actually believe Oracle is going to service, update, and develop MySQL, then you are the naive one. Except naive isn't the word that comes to mind. Having said that, a save-mysql-website is not the answer, if SUN wants to sell it they have the right to do so, and sell it to the highest bidder, or the lowest, or whoever they feel like. MySQL belongs to SUN. Apparently they are serious about selling it off. With that in mind, if you want to stop the giant Oracle from oppressing MySQL you better step up and make SUN an offer, because it is business, SUN will sell it. Selling to Oracle will not give Oracle a monopoly, therefore there is no grounds to prevent the sell. Again, SUN will sell it to Oracle unless someone gives SUN a better deal. It will not matter how many I-hate-Oracle or Anti-sell-to-Oracle websites are created. This business people, big business.

Re: leading the technological bandwagon
I ran into this before. They had a system of spreadsheets that worked for them and they didn't want that to go away. What I did was installed them a MySql server on a RHEL box, and rework all the spreadsheets that had special links to point to the database. My argument to them was this allowed for one central point information instead the potential for the same information to repeated (and possibly changed) from another source. This also gave them an eaisier backup solution. They liked it. Nowadays, Most business' have learned "if it works for you let it alone". I have seen a $4-million business printing out mailing labels on a Win98SE machine. Why? Because it works perfectly for what they want, why change it. They print out over 7 million mailing labels a year. They did upgrade the printer. -- robert Stephen Cook wrote: You should send that one to The Daily WTF... http://thedailywtf.com/ Jay Blanchard wrote: [snip] I recently last week Had and experience with an Very small Company, where as they had around 15 Machines all hooked "Star topology" and a central iis ASP Web server that only showed the date, and a few small utilities when addressed To it, now there entire Operation was based upon Excel, everything "not joking" I mean everything, was a file share to an Folder ("around 90 Folders") in which they had probably 200 + excel sheets in each one u name something u need to do in business I guarantee there was a excel sheet for it, repetitive sheets for Different Operations, all Sheets linked to one another thru references in excel, excel97 Mind u, I was there on a Consulting call, to inform them of a better way to update / Operate there business "They ended up saying they liked there Current way better" it makes more sence to them and Only wanted me to link 10 more sheets to what they already had and add a few more file shares, "of Course I refused this Project " and walked out Laughing my ass off in the car" [/snip] Seriously? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Increasing number of sockets
Gee, how about just a little more coffee... ;-) I meant, {long version}... It could be the radius error is reflecting its failure to connect to the database because the database has no connections available. I found the max_connection variable (default is 90) and applied it to the safe_mysqld section in the my.cn it seemed to have did the trick, I am not getting the error anymore.

Lossing connetion to MySql server
Please forgive me for double posting, but I can't remeber if my mysql list subscription is still active. Hi Folks, I have weird problem here. My MySql runs on a 7.2 Rh Linux kernel-2.4.9-43 MySql is version 3.32.36 Everything was doing fine the last major maint. was when I ran up2date on the MySql server Sunday, Monday moring no one could get to the MySql databases. The MySql logs shows where the server is starting everytime a connection request is made. However, I set at the console (or telnet) screen and start a session using mysql. I can go to another machine and run mysql -h and create a session. However, none of the GUIs like MySql Admin, or UrbanSQL, or our billing program (which uses java) can create a session. I have tried to completely shutdown the MySql and restart the daemon, but that didn't help either. BTW, I have one machine (the dial-up server) that runs a Perl script that connects to the MySql server and logs all modem query info in the database, it is working fine. The java err I recieve is as follows: SQLException setupDatabaseConnection:java.sql.SQLException: Communication link failure: Socket closed This is what shows up in the mysql query log: /usr/libexec/mysqld, Version: 3.23.36-log, started with: Tcp port: 3306 Unix socket: /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock Time Id CommandArgument This is what shows up in the mysql log: Number of processes running now: 1 mysqld process hanging, pid 14366 - killed 021015 05:53:39 mysqld restarted /usr/libexec/mysqld: ready for connections Any ideas??
