Mysql Connection Closes.

[Powermaster]

hello, every so often an error comes out of my phpbb. It says phpbb critical error
Can not connect to database.

I think this is phpbb being not able to connect to my database. The problem is resolved after a restart but, I don't want to restart every day.

10.2 should be here to my door soon.

Hmm, what "host name" are you using to establish the connection? Even if you use "localhost" you might need to add a GRANT for 'myuser'@'%.mynetwork.com' to account for those instances where your network assigns your IP address via DHCP.

I use LocalHost but, I use a static ip address on the mac itself. The iMac is behind a linksys router with DMZ Host On.
