RE: RE: MSQL server has gone away ( Apache::AuthDBI.pm )

Hi,

Could you send me your script so that I can try to write my own workaround.
Is your script integrated within Apache::AuthDBI.pm ?


Thanks
Alain

I ran into a similar problem while using MySQL and Apache::AuthDBI.

I had a remote MySQL server that my apache web server connected to and used
for authentication.  Every so often (no pattern to this) the connection to
MySQL would drop but MySQL would still be functioning properly.  

The only way I was able to detect whether the connection to MySQL was viable
was to write my own script that would attempt to reconnect to MySQL and
attempt to execute an actual query.  Pinging from MySQL => Apache wouldn't
work.

BTW, the symptom that would present itself when the connection dropped was
that apache would max out and NO URL requests would be processed.
