ispc3 starts many mysql processes!

[redray]

I wonder why mysql starts so many (sometimes >30) mysql processes!
Can this be reduced?

ISPConfig is not starting more then 2 or 3 connections. I guess what you see are the connections started by postfix. You can not reduce that as postfix has to start a connection for a incoming email to determine the correct destination for the email.

But thats not a problem, mysql is able to handle hundreds of connections well.

thank you very much till

... i used the mysql standard configuration from ubuntu - so i really had a problem ...

perhaps it would be a good idea to create an db-user ispcpostfix during install, so that nobody can blame ispconfig when looking at mysql processes ;-)

cheers
