mysql_pconnect() has been disabled

[donmorr]

Hello all,
Having a bit of a problem in connecting to a mysql database that I have created in the cPanel for my web page:


DB Error: connect failed [nativecode=mysql_pconnect() has been disabled for security reasons] ** Array


Does anyone know how I re-enable this?

Cheers,
Donal

Hello.

Due to the security rules which are currently on the server, mysql_pconnect has been disabled.

You can however use mysql_connect, which'll work fine.

mysql_pconnect give always trouble because of using persistant connection and what usually happen is error and it is better to disable it:

Warning: Too many connections in /usr/www/users/xxxxx/includes/phpconfig.php on line 4

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Too many connections in /usr/www/users/xxxxx/includes/phpconfig.php on line 4

It is because of max_user_connection variable int MySql that is always limited to save resource of server.
