It could be this isn't actually an issue in MySQL, but more an issue in the PHP database connection logic. Theory says create a connection to the db, operate across it, close it and thus release resources back to the pool. If the PHP MySQL libraries or the code in phpBB that calls them isn't managing the connections properly, the database resources simply get chewed up and never released. I'm not a MySQL expert but in application development generally, persistent connections are normally set for performance reasons (i.e. to increase performance of apps that have high, constant database use where the creation of connections has an impact on response) but this brings with it it's own set of caveats... so only allow them if you're aware of the consequences

S - your right, however the guys who developed phpbb3 require modifications to the mysql config and they just say the server host needs to change it at their end - once changed, phpbb3 works perfectly

We're back across the pond... But the owner of rr.net may be forced to look into a different host, or at least a new hosting plan, as the fix is only temporary. Keep that in mind if you ever go w/ v.3, Martin.

Umber - that does seem to be the common result for many people moving from v.2 to v.3

Nice work, Umberto... let's hope the permanent "fix" doesn't take too long to sort

RRSport is by far a superior site both technically and as a source of information. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.
