php segfault

Hi,

After a crash of my previous ispconfig install i decided to go the ispconfig3 path. After install the server and some hickups I managed to get my server going smoothly. But now after 2 weeks my server is experiencing issues. All of a sudden my php sites cannot connect to the mysql database anymore and the following is displayed in the log files. I have to restart mysql to get it working again. I guess this means there is something wrong with my mysql but why do i receive php messages? because it cannot connect to mysql anymore? i guess it shouldn't segfault because of that right?

I also looked for mysql errors but could not find any. Could this be a tuning issue, where php is requesting to many connections?

Code:

I thought segfaults are caused by bad programming? Maybe there is a bug in the mysql module in php?

After thinking about it again and searching the forum I have set the following:

max_connections = 500
max_user_connections = 500

This seems to fix the issues and it runs now without problems. Mysql only allows 151 connections by default which is to limited for my implementation (it seems).

Thx,

gzero.
