Error: 1040 too many connections
Hi, MySQL 4.0.14 This may have been queried a lot here. We get this error and after re-starting the server (MySQL) it seems to go away for a while. As per instructions we have changed the max connection in the My.ini to 500 (max_connections=500). MySQLAdmin displays connections = 120. Is there anything else we can do to deal with this issue? regards ___ ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Re: Error: 1040 too many connections
I had the same error for quite some time, the issue seemed to be server resources not being able to kill off connections quickly enough. We had a lot of traffic and some pretty slow queries. Optimizing the queries bought us some time, but ultimately we had to upgrade hardware. This bought us about a year and we are against the wall again now with the 1040 issue. We are probably going to get another server and set up replication. I'd be interested to hear anyone elses stories around this issue, it's been quite a headache for us...

Re: Error: 1040 too many connections
Hello. There reason can be in big queries wich consume the resources (temp space for example). Turn on log_slow_queries to find the guilty queries. See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Slow_query_log.html You have old enough version of MySQL. Use the latest release.

Re: ERROR 1040: Too many connections
Filippo There must be a problem, then. Filippo It happens to me, often, that I cannot obtain a proc or ext with mysqladmin Filippo as root. Filippo All accesses are through an unpriv username, I have max_connections=1000 and Filippo a Filippo ps ax | grep mysqld | wc -l gives me a value lower than 1000, so there must Filippo be room for one more connection. What error do you get? No connection. Are you sure that your other users dosn't have the 'PROCESS_PRIV' privilege? Oops. You're right, obviously. Should have checked before, sorry.

Re: ERROR 1040: Too many connections
Hi! "Filippo" == Filippo Carletti [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Sometimes something bad happens in a server and it is hard to figure out what is going on because we can not get in. I'd like to suggest a change Filippo for MySQL 4 protocol, such that a connection from localhost can still get through even if there are too many connections. It is already there - max_connections limit is actually for the user Filippo without process_priv. For the user with process_priv, the limit is max_connections Filippo + 1. The trick is not to connect as root for your regular connections. Filippo There must be a problem, then.
