[NTLUG:Discuss] MySQL-cannot create new thread

[Bill Shupp]

I'm running PHP 3.0.12 (apache 1.3.9) with MySQL
3.22.25, and MySQL has crashed twice this week with the
message (via PHP):

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't create a new
thread (errno 11)

I then cannot make a connect from the mysql client,
either.  Same error.  I have to restart MySQL to
recover.

My GNU/Linux system was redhat 5.1, but I'm running the
2.2.13 kernel, and had to upgrade a lot of software when
switching to the 2.2 kernel.. I'm currently running
glibc 2.0.7.

Is this a problem in Linux Threads?  Any advice is
appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill Shupp
