ID: 28098 Comment by: jose dot nobile at gmail dot com Reported by: moreau at myrealbox dot com Summary: mysql_pconnect never kills threads Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: MySQL related Operating System: FreeBSD 5.2.1 PHP Version: 4.3.6 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I don't found any form to use persistent connections. No threads, no working threads, no working php in console, no working What is the enviroment to use persistent connections? Apache + forker Apache + Worker Apache + PHP fastcgi Which??? This is not a bogus, is a real BUG of 7 years old. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-22 18:26:16] il...@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php When using threads you should not be using persistent connections, because PHP cannot identify existing connections as already avaliable and therefor opens a new persistent connection each time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-22 08:36:07] moreau at myrealbox dot com Thanks for your answer too, I didn't know that persistent connection is not closed after ending script. But I don't agree that such behaviour as I describe is normal. As I mentioned pconnect generate new thread in each new running script. BUT THIS IS THE SAME SCRIPT! So as said in documentation pconnect should REUSE old connection , BUT DON'T generate new connection. In practice - pconnet don't close any connection at all, but don't reuse previous connection and generate new. Is this also correct behaviour ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-22 01:54:05] il...@php.net Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Persistent connections remain active until the Apache is shutdown. This is expected behavior. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-21 22:02:35] moreau at myrealbox dot com Yes, significantly. Each script is successfully ended , so apache returns in normal state ( minimal threads and process - as pointed in config ) after long timeout ( when pages aren't requested ). But MySQL has many threads and no one of threads never die. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-04-21 19:19:51] gschlossna...@php.net mysql extension will create one connection per database connect string per PHP interpreter context, i.e. one per Apache thread or child. Is the number of connections you are seeing exceeding your Apache thread count? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
