Cakephp：是否可以限制数据库连接数？

Question

I read that Bluehost limits the number of database connections from one user to 15. I believe my webapp is using up all those connections. Whenever I try to use the cake console to access the database, I get the following error:

2011-11-29 05:06:58 Warning: Warning (2): mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: User myusername already has more than 'max_user_connections' active connections in [/home2/myusername/public_html/myapp/cake/libs/model/datasources/dbo/dbo_mysql.php, line 561]

How can I make sure there are connections for the cake console to use?

Edit:

Just to be clear, my app is not running out of connections. However, every time I try to access the database from the cake console I get that error. This leads me to believe that cake is creating and holding onto the connections for some reason.

Answer 1

If you have the root user account (or with super privileges),
you can change cli script to connect using root,
as root connection even the max connection is reached (max + 1)

You can make use of php_sapi_name to distinguish between normal web access or via console.

I don't think max connection is capped at 15,
if so you should consider another hosting company other than bluehost (because is suck) ...

To verify this, issue a SQL like :-

show variables like "max%";
