System Error 111???

[Funny]

Hi!

 

I was adding some new products to our new installed shop as suddenly all stopped and following error appeared:

 

 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 111 in /kunden/kansok.com/mind-forge.de/catalog/includes/functions/database.php on line 19

Unable to connect to database server!

 

 

I didn't do anythink. Now it's not even possible to open the Shop online anymore. Just the same error is displayed.

 

The file looks right.

 

Line 19: $$link = mysql_connect($server, $username, $password);

}

 

Thas all. Sorry, if it might be a stupid question, but I#m kinda new with OSCommerce.

 

THX

Sounds like a hosting issue. I would contact your hosting company and see if they can help you.

I have contacted them. they told me everything should work and they said they are able to acsess the database in their administration.

The fact that they can access the database from their admin does not really prove much. At the least they could have looked at the error logs to see if they could find the problem.

Is not an osC error. If you do a google search you will find it quite a few times and most seem to be php sites so I would see if they have made any changes (updates) to the server recently (php, mysql, apache)

 

You could try re-populating your database with a recent backup and if that does not help try creating and populating a new database with a recent backup and change the info in your two configure.php files with the new database info and see if that helps.
