connection pooling

amrigo

I have an aplication that is opening too many conections to the
mysql database.

Even i already use persistent connection.

Can i manage the number of connections whith php allowing only a fixed number of connections to be opened?

Thank´s in advance

Yes, edit your php.ini file and search for "mysql" in the MySQL section you will find a number of options which can be set such as max_persistent, max_links.

Great !

Do you have any idea how do i use this to display a message to the user like "max number connections allowed ! come back later!!"
