Hi,

I realy need some help from you. I know notting about configuration of mysql. I recently transfer my website from a share server to a dedicated server and the site its slower. The html pages open fast, but when is needed to get informations from the DB averything freezes. In the share server I could work ok with 50 user conected. In the dedicated server with 20 everything freezes. Is to slow. I don’t know what to do.

This are the specifications of my server:

CPU AuthenticAMD, AMD Athlon™ XP 2600+  
psa v8.0.1\_build80060713.16 os\_FedoraCore 4  
SO Linux 2.6.17-1.2142\_FC4smp  
ram: 471.21 MB  
free ram: 18Mb  
buffer: 3.40Mb  
Cached: 221Mb

I have a DB of 200Mb

the my.cnf is like this:

[mysqld]  
datadir=/var/lib/mysql  
socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

# Default to using old password format for compatibility with

mysql 3.x

# clients (those using the mysqlclient10 compatibility package).

old\_passwords=1

[mysql.server]  
user=mysql  
basedir=/var/lib

I really need help… Thanks,

Pedro
