Database error emails...
 

Hey there,

Basically everyday i am getting around 30 emails stating i have vbulletin database errors...

Here is the error:

I can usually debug PHP errors but when it comes to this message i have no idea what to do :S Last time i had a problem, i posted here and i got loads of help :)

Could somebody help me work out what i need to do :D

Cheers,

RoundHost

It means your MySQL server is crashing IIRC :)

Damn, this server has been getting worse and worse since this damn kernel upgrade :devious:

yah i get around 100 a day with jiffynet how can i prevent this or what can i do to try and stop this.

I get a ton of these each day, too, I'm also looking for help with what to do if the server is crashing IIRC ...

Hmm, the best thing you can do is check your logs and contact your host and ask for an explanation :)

You're lucky -- I get a LOT more than that. ;)

We had problems initially with that as well, but we tweaked a few apache and mysql settings since then and it seems to be better. I can't remember exactly what solved it, but maybe I can look back and see if I can find it.

tekton please do .. Thanks much in advance bro.

I'm getting this same thing lately... I'd totally appreciate any help :)

same here after a server move...any ideas...since my host doesn't really have a clue...

Try turning persistent connections off in the admincp. This may make it worse or better.

It means vB could not connect to mysql - either because mysql has failed, or possibly you have run out of connections - which could be because the max connections setting in mysql is too low.

max settings was set to unlimited..I'll try turning off persistent connections... thanks for the replies!!
