Re: Problem with MySQL and SMP?

2002-01-11 Thread gavin

Any suggestions on loging tools I cna run to try to find out more 
information? The machine is coloced about 3 hours for me, so I would 
hate to have to drive there and install FreeBSD on it, when it was just 
something I could have fixed.

hi!
i'm running mysql on a dual pIII for 3 years now and i
have no problems . the machine is running slackware
2.2.16 and mysql 3.23.47.
so, i think that you have to check the motherboard of
the server or even change it ( some bioses crashes
linux on smp). the other problem may be is redhat it
self - but i'm not sure - i'm always use slack - it'
absolutely stable 

good luck

Re: Problem with MySQL and SMP?

2002-01-11 Thread Joshua J . Kugler

We are having the same problem.  Mandrake 8.1, kernel 2.4.17, MySQL 3.23.47. 
Dual PIII-500, 512MB of RAM, Mylex DAC960 RAID 5.

After being up for a few days, the system completely froze.  No ssh, no 
console, nothing.  Had to hard reset the server.

Yes, we compiled MySQL: we have to.  Our application relies on SELECT id ... 
WHERE id IS NULL behaving the same way as LAST_INSERT_ID(), and to do that, I 
have to comment out one (yes, just one) line of code.  Which means I have to 
compile.

Anyway, this is sort of a longish me too, but I wanted to confirm that 
Gavin was not alone in this problem.

In a message from Heikki Tuuri [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The kernel 2.4.4-SMP-64GB has been very stable on our 2-way computer.
Somewhere in about version 2.4.10 Linus changed the virtual memory. I am
not
sure how stable kernels 2.4.10 - .17 are, but at least some people are
running them with success.



That could be the problem.


Down grade to 2.4.9 or .8, patch up the security holes, if any in
that kernel, and give that a test run.

If nothing works as you said, no ssh, no console, this is not MySQL
issue.

It is either hardware or some unknown (?) 2.4.17 SMP bug.

RE: Problem with MySQL and SMP?

2002-01-11 Thread Johnny Withers

Forgot to say I was running MySQL v 3.23.39

Also, I read in one of the other messages on this thread
that the problem might be RedHat. I don't relly belive this
because a kernel is a kernel.

RedHat = Every other Distro when it comes to issues with
the kernel (memory,diskaccess,etc). In my opinion,
I have been wrong before.

Perhaps your problem lies in the IDE controller. For some reason, my 
friend and I have been through several dual (MSI  Tyan) motherboards 
over the past few months that have almost always had IDE controller 
problems where they wouldn't work at all, or would lock up after using 
them for 20 to 30 minutes. If you're using IDE on the dual, try SCSI. 
 Or perhaps the chipset?  Did you use the same motherboard in both SMP 
servers?  If so, perhaps there was a chipset problem in that brand, and 
you may have to check with the manufacturer.  I'm just taking shots in 
the dark here, but there's no reason why the SQL server should keep 
crashing ONLY because the difference is single processor kernel, or smp 
kernel. I would assume that any good SQL server is designed with SMP 
kernel in mind for database apps that would require a lot of processing 
power.  Try eliminating the possibilities of hardware problems first.
