I have recently just changed hosting companies. It is a shared hosting server using ensim webappliance pro.
This problem keeps happening. Mysql will work for half an hour and then go down. My admin has confirmed that another site had problems in the script and was blocking everyone. I understrand that an interface is blocked when more than ten bad connects occur. On the shared hosting we share the same interface. My admin has responded by shutting down the other site till the scripts are fixed. He has also set cron job every hour to flush-hosts. How can i stop it happening? I am nervous that another user will clobber the whole server again. On my server the mysql.sock file is not present so i can not connect via unix sockets. Should I perhaps insist that I be able to connect via unix socket. It is my understanding that the unix socket does not have the same connection error counting. regards Marty martinATbarlowDOTname -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
