MySQL wait_timeout参数设置与网上常见错误小纠

应用遇到异常报警：

问题比较明显，应用连接已经失效。

23.579s之前创建了一个连接，之后再次使用此数据库连接就超时了。

查看数据库配置：

mysql> show  global  variables like  'wait_timeout';+---------------+-------+| Variable_name | Value |+---------------+-------+| wait_timeout  | 20    |+---------------+-------+1 row in set (0.00 sec)

解决这个方法：

一：从应用层解决问题：修改连接池参数 缩短连接池内的连接超时时间。

二：从DB层解决问题：增大MySQL的连接失效时间。

mysql> show  global  variables like  'wait_timeout';+---------------+-------+| Variable_name | Value |+---------------+-------+| wait_timeout  | 20    |+---------------+-------+1 row in set (0.00 sec)

动态修改global参数，wait_timeout;

set global wait_timeout=30;

再次查看参数：

mysql> show  global  variables like  'wait_timeout';+---------------+-------+| Variable_name | Value |+---------------+-------+| wait_timeout  | 30    |+---------------+-------+1 row in set (0.00 sec)

时间的大小设置不能随便，时间过长，导致过多的connection Sleep,占用较多系统资源。时间设置过小也不行。从业务出发，结合查询的耗时与业务吞吐量来进行设置比较合适吧。

常见误解：

网上有很多文章 没有清晰的认识 会话变量与全局变量的不同，查看了会话变量的超时时间，最终可能会导致将全局变量 wait_timeout设置成了31536000s！！

[mysqld]

wait_timeout=31536000

my.cnf里设置的参数是global级别。不是会话级别。

然而：

mysql> show variables like  'wait_timeout';+---------------+-------+| Variable_name | Value |+---------------+-------+| wait_timeout  | 28800 |+---------------+-------+1 row in set (0.00 sec)

正确的参数初始化设置应该为：

[mysqld]

wait_timeout=30

建议大家今后查询变量的时候不要使用缺省。

查询会话变量：

mysql> show session variables like  '%wait%'; +--------------------------+----------+| Variable_name            | Value    |+--------------------------+----------+| innodb_lock_wait_timeout | 50       || innodb_spin_wait_delay   | 6        || lock_wait_timeout        | 31536000 || wait_timeout             | 28800    |+--------------------------+----------+4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

查询全局变量：

mysql> show global variables like  '%wait%';        +--------------------------+----------+| Variable_name            | Value    |+--------------------------+----------+| innodb_lock_wait_timeout | 50       || innodb_spin_wait_delay   | 6        || lock_wait_timeout        | 31536000 || wait_timeout             | 30       |+--------------------------+----------+4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
