Connection problems
-
It happens almost every other time I try to connect to CP. 500 ERROR or Connection Refused or the cute "Something broke..." page. I assume it runs on SQL Server yes? Now I can't help remembering the conversation recently about how MySQL is the VB of databases etc etc and how it isn't a "real" database etc etc. Well I run a website that gets well over 100k uniques a day. It isn't a plain text site. It has huge numbers of users streaming video etc etc. And it runs on MySQL. And it runs on a single server. And we never have the problems I see here. I just wondered if that kind of information would have any impact on the view that MySQL is the VB of databases? BTW This is not a knock on CP in the slightest. Just a continuation of the MySQL is the VB etc etc

It's not SQL Server that causes the errors. It's the
fetchAd.asp
file which is used to get the adds you see at different places in the page. I don't know where it's getting ads from (maybe some from SQL Server, but if I recall correctly, some ads also come from Google.) -- LuisR

Yes.... or at least 99.9% of them. See the threads below. -- LuisR

I don't think the 500 errors we all know and love are due to the back-end database, so the implied assumption that moving to MySQL from SQL Server is tenous at best. Your justification for MySQL is also a bit weak. How many of your 100,000 hits result in a database query or update?
