Hi, Finally you seem to say that you 've setting max_connections with a limit. Can you tell how many 100 or 200 ?
Also you say : > Here's the configuration: > MySQL Ver 12.21 Distrib 4.0.14, for pc-linux (i686) > PHP 4.3.2 > Red Hat 9.0 Have you enable QUERY CACHE feature with MySQL 4.0.14 ?

(Fortunately, I have a cron > job checking on it and restarting.) However, this did put me on to the problem. I was tripping resource limits. When I was first setting up the server and getting the individual sites/users working in the mysql.user table, I saw the max_connections column set to 0 and thought that was a problem; I didn't realize that 0 meant "no limit". So I set a limit. I was running up on the connection limits, which meant mysqld was refusing further connections until my server restart reset the counts to 0. With mysql_connect I had more connections, and thus reached the limit faster. Now I have reset the max_connections numbers to 0, and I haven't had a failure in twenty hours, so I think I can call this problem solved. Thanks for your help. In the course of sorting it out, I also learned a good deal about debugging mysql errors gracefully in PHP. pjm -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
