MySQL: Fix bad connection error defaults
For whatever reason MySQL server software ships with really stupid defaults for handling problems with the incoming connections. Obviously, Zubrcom's intallation of MySQL does not suffer from this problem. However, if you have braved rolling your own installation it may be helpful to add the following lines in /etc/my.cnf:
[mysqld]
max_connections = 1100 # max number of clients if each client is non-threaded
max_connect_errors=99999999 # dont stop mysql before it gets this many connection errors.
max_user_connections = 1100 # max connections per user
If MySQL is already running, login into root account and use comand SET GLOBAL to change the variable setting without restarting MySQL.
