Problem
flex.bi server gets very slow response times to import or report queries. Sometimes this is visible as timeout of reports, sometimes as error messages about not being able to lock records or other database related messages in queues log file.
Solution
Enabling logging of slow queries might help to trace the cause of the problem if it is database configuration problem. Enter these commands in you mysql configuration (usually /etc/my.cnf file):
long_query_time = 10 slow_query_log = 1 slow_query_log_file = /var/log/mysql/log-slow-queries.log
The create the fileĀ /var/log/mysql/log-slow-queries.log and make sure it can be accessed by the system user running mysql - usually user mysql. For example:
# mkdir /var/log/mysql # touch /var/log/mysql/log-slow-queries.log # chown mysql:mysql /var/log/mysql/log-slow-queries.log
Then restart mysql service and monitor the file.
