MYSQL Problem

[lucasnet]

I see that error:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !
MySQL said: User xxx_blax has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections

My admin said me that my script has got an error. Max 20 connections are open and dont close.

??

The connections close when the script finishes, see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-close.php

I'm having the same problem... will it go away?

[Joachim Müller]

ask your webhost for support, this is not coppermine-related.

[opulence]

lol that's funny because my admin is saying the opposite

He's saying it's because the script isn't closing too!

*sigh* it sucks being stuck as the middle man

[opulence]

I think it might have something to do with idle persistent connections.

Is there someplace in coppermine where I can set a lower "wait_timeout" ?

does coppermine use mysql_connect or mysql_pconnect ?

[Nibbler]

Coppermine only uses mysql_connect, which drops the connection as soon as the script ends and the page is displayed.
