Hi all. Thanks for reading and replying.
php.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-bcmath.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-cli.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-common.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-gd.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-mbstring.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-mysql.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-pdo.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 php-pgsql.i386 5.2.6-jason.1 As for which version of mysql, I am using what I believe to be the the defaults: $ rpm -q mysql mysql-server python mysql-5.0.45-7.el5 mysql-server-5.0.45-7.el5 python-2.4.3-21.el5 $ yum list installed mysql.i386 5.0.45-7.el5 mysql-server.i386 5.0.45-7.el5 python.i386 2.4.3-21.el5
My /etc/my.conf is as follows: [mysqld] datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock user=mysql [mysqld_safe] log-error=/var/log/mysqld.log pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid Can you suggest how I would find out about excessive threads? I searched for hours but didn't come up with anything. I'll re-iterate for good measure: `yum list php` doesn't work if mysqld is turned on. If I do `/etc/init.d/mysqld stop` (or `services mysqld stop`), `yum list php` works fine. So it's only failing when mysqld is turned on. (?!) And only on some commands. For example `yum list installed` works all the time. Here's the full error: ]$ yum list php Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "priorities" plugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * utterramblings: www.jasonlitka.com Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ? yummain.main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 105, in main result, resultmsgs = base.doCommands() File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 289, in doCommands self._getTs() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/depsolve.py", line 85, in _getTs self._getTsInfo() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/depsolve.py", line 91, in _getTsInfo self._tsInfo.setDatabases(self.rpmdb, self.pkgSack) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 537, in <lambda> pkgSack = property(fget=lambda self: self._getSacks(), File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 392, in _getSacks self.repos.populateSack(which=repos) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/repos.py", line 214, in populateSack self.doSetup() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/repos.py", line 66, in doSetup self.ayum.plugins.run('postreposetup') File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/plugins.py", line 169, in run func(conduitcls(self, self.base, conf, **kwargs)) File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/fastestmirror.py", line 90, in postreposetup_hook repomirrors[str(repo)] = FastestMirror(repo.urls).get_mirrorlist() File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/fastestmirror.py", line 142, in get_mirrorlist self._poll_mirrors() File "/usr/lib/yum-plugins/fastestmirror.py", line 155, in _poll_mirrors pollThread.start() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line 416, in start _start_new_thread(self.__bootstrap, ()) thread.error: can't start new thread Other than installing packages using yum, and modified /etc/services and removed /etc/rpc for security reasons, nothing much has been done with this system. I'm at a loss to understand why it doesn't work when mysqld is turned on. Any other ideas? --- |
