Question

Currently running an apache server with wordpress. Keeps bringing up database error connection after a few minutes of doing anything. Attempted to get into mysql through command line. Keep getting error: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (111) Error log dump: 140124 17:29:01 [Warning] Using unique option prefix myisam-recover instead of myisam-recover-options is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

This is happening to me on a WordPress droplet. I’ve done two things, one suggested by another answer here. In the [mysqld] section I’ve added innodb_buffer_pool_size = 16M. Note, this is really small, but this is on a small droplet, so it is what it is. Additionally, when mysql eventually crashed I noticed apache having a LOT of processes. It’s likely hogging up all the system memory. Again, this is for a small site, so I tuned down apache by editing /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mpm_prefork.conf to this:

<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
    StartServers        3
    MinSpareServers     3
    MaxSpareServers     5
    MaxRequestWorkers   25
    MaxConnectionsPerChild  0
</IfModule>

Updating innodb_buffer_pool_size stabilized the system for a lot longer than before, but apache eventually hogged all the memory. I’m hoping my problem goes away limiting the number of Apache processes that can exist.

MaxConnectionsPerChild 0 means that child threads will never restart. This can cause memory leaks. Perhaps a large enough number such as 2048 or 4096.

  yes, you are right, thanks for pointing this out!
  
  my site is very a low-traffic, so i want child processes to cycle quickly. i’m updating my config to use MaxConnectionsPerChild 512. i used chrome’s inspector and my site’s main page makes 45 (!!) requests. with 512 requests per child, each process will render ~10 pages and exit.
  
  for reference, here is a link to the official docs: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/mod/mpm_common.html#maxconnectionsperchild

Can you backup your existing /etc/mysql/my.cnf and replace it with the this one

This is what I'm currently using on 512 droplet to test.

This also worked for me. Remember to backup your my.cnf file before replacing it with the new one, just incase something is missing or different in the pastebin version.

I’ve encountered similar issue, and adding 1GB swap solved my problem. See this:

After applying the mysql and apache tweaks in my previous post I stressed the system using ab. Below are my results. Long story short, the system was able to successfully process 5000 requests across 20 concurrent connections. The system remained stable and no mysql issues.

I’m running this on a 1G droplet, might be tight, but this config seems like it would work on a 512MB as well.

Hope this helps!

I'm assuming this is MySQL 5.5 or 5.6?
You can try on turning of the performance schema in the my.cnf

More info here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/performance-schema-startup-configuration.html
If this works you'll then need to decide if you need the performance schema and tweak your my.cnf so everything fits in the memory you have

Create or add the following to your /etc/mysql/my.cnf

[mysqld]
performance_schema=off

The full version title is '5.5.34-0ubuntu0.12.04.1;, I have turned the performance_schema off and it has repeated the fault. My next line of inquiry is that does there have to be a minimum amount of memory to run a mysql server. I am currently at 512MB, will I have to increase this?

Can you run the command: free -m

I had mysql + php-fpm + nginx + memcache running on a 512mb droplet as a test and got everything working.

total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 490 225 265 0 10 103
-/+ buffers/cache: 111 379
Swap: 0 0 0

That is the result from free -m, Anything out of the unordinary?

Copied the pastie file, failed to start upon 'service mysql restart'.

Pastie to original my.cnf = http://pastie.org/8665255 if you need it.

In your config can you move the line
performance_schema=off

to be under the [mysqld] section?
I'm not the greatest at mysql so hopefully someone else will come along with more ideas if that doesn't work.

Also can you check that you don't have any abandoned mysql processes that could be throwing off the startup script

ps -ef | grep mysqld

You'll want more memory. The error message clearly says so. You can tune MySQL later.

That is the message produced by the command.

mysql 1933 1 0 Jan24 ? 00:00:14 /usr/sbin/mysqld
root 4265 4196 0 12:09 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto mysqld

Is that correct? Or expected anyway?

I got this when I used the config file provided for 512MB droplet.

I fixed it by using these before restarting mysql to the new config provided in the comments.

Just my two cents:

We were/are getting this error periodically when we notice that our server is getting hammered with web/sql requests, usually from a european or asian IP. Dropping the IP in IPTABLES seems to help for long periods of time; at least until the next bot or whatever starts again.
