Enabling Remote Connections
Can someone tell me how to set up the mysql server to accept remote connections?
Im using mysql 4.1 on Linux Ubuntu 5.10
I have tried editing my.cnf and changing the bind-address from 127.0.0.1 to the server's IP address, but this just results in the server failing to restart with the following error:
Starting MySQL database server: mysqld...failed.
Please take a look at the syslog.
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
What do I have to do to get it to accept local and remote connections? Code:

SLOW REMOTE CONNECTIONS
well i have read many many threads about mysql being slow on remote connections due a issue called dns look back, and dns round trips ive read many many times the solution its the to add this line to the my.ini skip-name-resolve. but it mysql seens to ignore it since i still can use dns on the conections and the response times still 5 seconds or moreits not a network speed or latency issues cause once connection its established it works fine. this its how my.ini on my computer looks like [mysqld] port = 3306 socket = /tmp/mysql.sock skip-locking skip-name-resolve whats wrong there or what could i be possibly doing wrong.

Remote MySQL Connections, Still Not Working
I've read, and done all the tutorials, forum posts, and comments I could find regarding setting up a mysql server access for remote connections, but I still seem to have problems. I have a LAMP server running behind a closed router connection. A dynamic DNS is masking the connection, and I have the appropriate ports open for HTTP, SSH, VNC, FTP, and I thought MySQL (3306). But for some reason I still cannot get MySQL to connect from a foreign host. The I have port forwarding (3306) to the correct system behind the router, and I can access the server just fine via http/ftp. The MySQL server is happily running PHP MyAdmin with the localhost connection too. I've set a (actually a couple now) user to have the ip access of "%", and granted all permissions to that user, flushed the permissions, even restarted the server. I still can't get the remote connection to work.

MySQL Max Connections Remote And Local
My website runs on two servers. One is mean't for PHP and the other is the database MySQL. Whenever a request is made, the PHP attempts to connect to the MySQL via a remove host variable in the mysql_pconnect() function. This works fine, however when it comes down to having lots of connections in the my.cnf file, which one do I edit? max_connections = 1000 Now do I set this in the MySQL only, or do I set it in the PHP server as well?

MySQL Remote Backups - No Access To FTP Or Remote Command Line
I have a mySQL database located on a remote host's server. I would like to schedule a task on my local Windows computer to retrieve a backup/dump of this remote database. I have contacted my host, and they indicated that the server is only open to the Internet via mySQL. Therefore, even if I did have access to that server's command line (which I don't) to create dumps via mysqldump, I would not be able to retrieve via FTP. Does anybody have any ideas as to how I can generate backup files from my local computer through a local command-line interface? I have done it through a GUI (DBTools), but I would like to have it done via DOS batch, so that I can schedule it. Does anyone know of any mysql backup GUIs with command line switches? Or can somebody recommend an alternate means of getting a local backup?

Too Many Connections Error
I have been getting the following error consistently every few days: Warning: Too many connections in /path/to/connection.php I altered the max_connections in my.cnf to allow for 300 connections. I am not using persistent connections with php. I used to use them but got this too many connections error all the time, so I switched to non-persistent connections, but they don't seem to be getting killed off? I am using php to connect. has anyone else dealt with this issue? Should I perhaps be closing the mysql_connect() after running each query?

Dual Connections
I am developing a PHP script that needs to connect to two different databases in one script. There is one catch, however. One database is on a local computer (laptop). The other database is on a server 1,000 miles away.Is this possible? In case you are wondering why I need this capability: This application allows a user to enter data into a database on their local computer (laptop). With the click of a button, I want to transfer all of the data from the local database to the database on the server. Therefore I need to connect to the local database, loop through each record, copy it into an array. Then I need to connect to the server database, loop through the array, and insert each row into the server database. This must all be in the same script.

'Too Many Connections' Error;
I manage a Linux box that runs a small website and today, my clients got the 'Could not connect: Too many connections' error when they tried to connect to their CMS. Here is what I did: 1. Ran "show full processlist" from a mysql prompt and got the following info: +-----+------+-----------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+ | Id | User | Host | db | Command | Time | State | Info | +-----+------+-----------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+ | 405 | root | localhost | NULL | Query | 0 | NULL | show full processlist | +-----+------+-----------+------+---------+------+-------+-----------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) In other words, there was only one person logged on, and that was me. I ran this a bunch of times during the day and this was all I ever saw.

What Are Connections And How To Manage Them
I have been using mySQL for several years now, but I currently developing a larger/broader usage website with intense mySQL contents usage. I have been told that mySQL has a so-called connection limit of 50-70. QUESTIONS: 1) What is a connection limit? Or... How do you count 1 connection? 2) How do you properly manage this, to e.g. handle a site that has 1000 simultaneous users logged in to a web site and interacting with the database.

Selecting Across Connections
This is either a very simple answer or a very dumb question, i'm also sure there is alot of documentation on how/why not to do this possibly too much hence my issue with figuring it out. I have a db on-site at locationA. I have a db hosted online at locationB. I want to schedule a query to run regularly (twice daily) that Selects into a table on db at locationB data from tables at locationA, the query needs to be executed at locationA. I.e. SELECT locationA.myonsitedb.tblMyTable.* INTO locationB.myonlinedb.tblMyRemoteTable.* Unfortunately, in my noobness I have no idea where to start here, I have no problem with the queries but I'm completely green to the setup of connections and how to query across these connections or how to setup the scheduling.

Aborted Connections
I get pages error logs with this message - "Got an error reading communication packets". And the aborted clients are easily in hundreds. Here is my set of configurations: I am running Microsoft .Net 2.0 on Windows 2003 Server using IIS 6.0. I am using Mysql 5.0 with Mysql/.Net Connector 1.0. Some of the settings on my.ini - Connection timeout - 180 Wait timeout - 360 Max packet size - 10 M Max connections - 5000 (pretty high, but set to be on a safer side) When a perform a netstat -ao - I have lot many sockets open with TIME_WAIT status. On the MySql Command client - the Aborted clients average around 100's The connection string from ,Net application has pooling=false with no help. The webserver does not have a heavy load and has less than 5 users at any point in time. On the registry settings, I have the max ports > 60000 and the time_wait setting changed to 30. My application is opens a connection, performs a query and closes the connection and this is the fashion followed for all DB operations.

ODBC CONNECTIONS
We are in the process of setting up a database to house some information from our (legacy) ERP. Two questions have arisen: 1. Can we create a direct link to the data source from the db? 2. Currently we are using access as an intermediate connection - the link to the dsn in in access and then we have been exporting the data to the MySQL table. However, this will not let us update the tables it creates because it says the file already exists. If we stay with this method, how do we update the tables on a nightly basis (needs to be an automatic function).

Slow Connections
I am using MyODBC-3.51.11-2-win on Win 2003 OS. I am not able to see all of the connections in the list under the System DSN tab. The connections that show allow the ASP pages to run at an expected rate. However, the ones not showing in the list are running extremely slow. If I attpemt to recreate the connection I am told that the connection already exists and asks if I want to replace the existing connection. Wheter I click yes or no the connections do not show and the pages run slowly. How do I get them to show or resolve the issue. The ASP code is the exact same SQL statements and connection strings as the in previous applications.

Database Connections
i have a general question using the mySQL database. Lets say I have 10 database queries in my application. The 10 queries do not happen one after the other in a short time, so it can be that between one and the next query elapse seconds, or minutes, depending on e.g. user actions of my application. Well, should I open and close a connection for every query or should I open one connection in the beginning of my apllication, then do the ten queries with the same connection and afterwards close the connection again? I think both is possible, but what is 'best practice'? Is it a matter of speed from/to the database

Too Many Connections By A Php File

ERROR 3: The connection to the registration database is temporarily unavaliable: Too many connections" I have not changed the coding for the connection to the database since I first wrote it.

Too Many Connections (my.cnf Set To 3550)
I'm getting the following error in one of my scripts: Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Too many connections in /home/filexoom/public_html/includes/mysql.class.php on line 5 mySQL: Too many connections on line 5 in /home/filexoom/public_html/includes/mysql.class.php To fix the problem I've raised the max_connections to 3550 (had to raise it gradually), but it is still getting the error on occasion. I don't understand what's going on, I only have about 4000 users in the db. I have restarted httpd, mysql, and even the entire server after editting my.cnf. However I'm still getting the same issue. I'm thinking perhaps the script is not closing the db connections, so there are a bunch that are still open, but should be closed. If so, is there anyway I can kill/flush all the current connections?
