If you add up all the percentages from the pie chart shown you get a total of 238.2 not 100. Something amiss here :-)

Comment on Moodle’s MySQL Keeps Going Down by Rosalyn Metz

Kashif,

Did you check to see if turning of Moodle stats fixes the problem? Other than that I’m at a loss as to what your problem is. The steps I outline above may help lead you to the answer, although there is no guarantee.

Hi Rosalyn,

I came across this interesting post of yours. Our Moodle website (intranet > Windows Server 2003) has been running fine for a very long time until recently when the message “Error: Database connection failed….” started to pop up from time to time. Restarting the server seems to be the only fix at the moment. I have looked into all kinds of logs to get a handle on the problem but in vain. Any ideas…

Hi Rosalyn,
Found this link over at the Moodle.org forums.

This worked perfectly for me. Thanks!

Guess he was cool done a good job in upbringing libraries in America. I admire American libraries for their meticulate maintenance and ubiquitous presence all around.

I was able to re-create the AMI. Information about the AMI can be found on my AMI page: http://rosalynmetz.com/ideas/amazon-web-services-ec2-amis/
