account disabled from web hosts

[trav]

Hello,

I run version 1.2.1-DEV

I just got a mail from my hosts stating that they have disabled a script using 'Sleep' that is causing MySQL database problems at the server.

What does this mean?

----------------------------------
7778 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 483 | | |
| 7799 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 205 | | |
| 7808 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 442 | | |
| 7844 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 103 | | |
| 7854 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 120 | | |
| 7901 | myusername | localhost | myusername_phpwcms | Sleep | 224 | |

I'm not sure if this is the problem, but is your conf.inc.php set to use persistent db connects? If so, I would definately set it to no - 0 (zero).

thanks....which setting is that??

line 9 of /config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php should be as follows:
$phpwcms["db_pers"] = 0;

I'm not sure if this relates to the 'Sleep' issue that you mentioned, but it's the only resolution that comes to mind.

They have disallowed permission on the config.php file I notice, but will write to them asking if that is the problem.

Thanks anyway.
