PHP mysql_connect randomly failing

I've got a library of PHP code whose first line is a mysql_connect
statement, like this:

$dbh=mysql_conn ect() or die("mysql connect failed: $php_errmsg");

Approximately 1% of the time it just fails, for no stated reason:

Warning: mysql_connect() [http://www.php.net/function.mysql-connect]:
in /var/httpd/htdocs/pi/pi.php on line 3
mysql connect failed:

Any ideas why this would be happening? PHP is version 4.3.1 (same
results with the latest 4.3.3 release candidate), Mysql is 4.0.12

thanks

Hi

Do you think you might have reached the maximum number of allowed
connections.

Try and double or triple this figure and see what happens.

Thanks

I need that my script retrieves data from two different databases so I use mysql_connect() to open two connections. I have only one server, user and password, just two different databases. Simplified, it'd be: $con1=mysql_connect($server, $user, $pass); mysql_select_db($database1, $con1); $res1=mysql_query($sql1, $con1); $con2=mysql_connect($server, $user, $pass);

I have a small test script connecting to a MySQL database. It seems to work, unless I try to use the resource link identifier returned by mysql_connect(); This works and returns all the rows in the table: <?php include("../config.php"); $dbi = mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuname,$dbpass);

Hello people, There is a problem is that mysql_connect() somehow caches last sessions IP and is not using the one which you put into host place. Has anyone made mysql_connect() from php to multiple SQL servers so that script tries to connect to resolved IPs until it finds one that works? I have set up DNS so that on request sql.example.com it returns two
