MySQL Issues
Last modified: 2008-09-15 14:39:24 UTC
Couple of issues: 1) Too many MySQL processes. Since SlimServer is effectively single threaded, it doesn't make sense to run multiple MySQL processes, since there can be only one query at a time. 2) Cleanup MySQL processes after slimserver crash - this does happen, and there doesn't appear to be a ny provision for this on a restart. You might want to consider using a light-weight monitor process to start both MySQL and the slimserver. If either crashes, the monitor process can then do the cleanup, and either exit, or restart gracefully.
We're now deal with starting and stopping MySQL a little bit better. Please try the latest nightly and let me know if it's better. Thanks.
