Resolved ERROR: PleskDBException: Unable to connect to database: mysql_connect():

daanse

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

i'm using: "12.5.30 Update #23, zuletzt aktualisiert: 25. Febr. 2016 23:00:41" and today it seems that Plesk updated automatically (turned it off just in case now) and everything was down:

ERROR: PleskDBException: Unable to connect to database: mysql_connect(): Resource temporarily unavailable /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock (Error code: 2002). Please check that database server is started and accessible. (Abstract.php:69)

after that, i made a restart.

ERROR: PleskDBException: Unable to connect to database: mysql_connect(): No such file or directory /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock (Error code: 2002). Please check that database server is started and accessible. (Abstract.php:69)

in meanwhile ...

Error displaying the error page: Application Instantiation Error: Could not connect to MySQL.

Current Status after restart...

What can i do against this? It's really annoying. This happened 10 Times the last Year always at round about 7 o' clock (Germany)... My Customers will kill me the next time this happends..

The Solution for the moment was to hit "/etc/init.d/apache2 restart" in SSH..

Any Leads or How To's or Answers would be great.
 
How can i check? Which command do i need to run?
I'm using Debian 8.3
But on two other Servers i got this Problem last Year over 10 Times. There i had Cent OS and always Latest Version.
 
HI,
Thank you.

"/var/log/mysqld.log" is empty. No Errors.

Maybe its related to the recently activated Firewall Settings? Could this cause such a Problem?
 
Have you tried to restart mysql service at least?
 
Yes. Its okay now but i'm afraid about the next Update. I turned off "automatic Update" but i got to a Point where i want to figure out the Causes...
I had this really often with different Servers in the Past.
I think i am missing something.

What i know, one Server without Firewall active (don't know why it was deactivated) there where no Problems.
 
I still have these Errors for 1-5 Minutes in the morning and then its fine again.
What can i do?
 
again this morning. :-( Really need help here.
whis is something i could get out

...... and 100 Lines more

i think the First line is my Problem: [2016-03-06 06:30:03] ERR [1] SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 23 Out of resources when opening file '/tmp/#sql_459_1.MAI' (Errcode: 24 "Too many open files") ????
After this the Server was down i think?

Does this helps?

Hi, view the Log.
if its say somewhere "too many files open" its about changing MySQL Setting "open Files Limit"
This and gracefully restart worked always for me.
Actually i never had Problems again (after increasing Value)
 
Yes I think it's the same probleme, but I doesn't have the open_limit_file on /etc/mysql/my.conf. And I don't know where is it !
I'm on Debian 8.0‬ - Plesk 12.5.30.

On my.conf :
Code:
!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
[mysqld]
#bind-address = ::
bind-address = **.*.*.*
skip_name_resolve
local-infile=0

On my /etc/security/limits.conf :
Code:
#*               soft    core            0
#root            hard    core            100000
#*               hard    rss             10000
#@student        hard    nproc           20
#@faculty        soft    nproc           20
#@faculty        hard    nproc           50
#ftp             hard    nproc           0
#ftp             -       chroot          /ftp
#@student        -       maxlogins       4
When i did "mysql -uadmin -p`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow` psa -e "SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'Open_files_limit';" : I show : 1024 and I know I must Increase this values, but i don't know where !
