Mysql too many connections but not visible in fullprocess list
- by user968898
I got a big problem, I guess it's something like a dos attack but I am not sure.
Since this morning, my database is very slow and gives me 7/10 times a too many connections error or tries to login with www-data user (as following up of the too many connections error?).
I tried to locate the issue by mysql command line with 'show fullprocess list' but it gives me just one response back and that 'me'.
What can I do about this? The websites are still running ok, but mysql is overused I guess.
