How do you close the vB MySQL connection?
 

We wrote some custom apps that use some vB files to pull in data ..

In our footer we close all our MySQL connections like; mysql_close($connection);

However the vB connection isn't getting closed.

Is there a simple way to close it using the mysql_close command?

Unless you are using persistent connections (set in config.php), all connections will close at the end of the script's execution (PHP does this automatically).

Then why do I have 16-30 open connections all in Sleep mode? Some as high as 800s

exec_shut_down(); is the function to close the entire processing
