How do I disable "pconnect" in order to stop "database connect failed" message ?
My host, inmotionhosting.com suspects pconnect being the problem. If more than 30 users have this persistent connection to the database, then other connections fail. That explains why some folks can intermittently connect to my site (including myself!).
Does anyone know how to disable pconnect within Dolphin? It's not something done on the hosts side.
Thanks,
Joe
admin\modules.php (2 entries for pconnect)
inc\db.inc.php (1 entry for pconnect)
modules\phpbb.aemod (1 entry for pconnect)
In each file, find "pconnect" and remove the p (persistent connection). This has resolved my issue! Woo hoo!
I had the same problem, and I could fix it with your advice.
I really need to fix this.
