A.2.5 `Host 'HOST_NAME' is blocked'
-----------------------------------
If you get the following error, it means that `mysqld' has received many
connect requests from the host `'HOST_NAME'' that have been interrupted
in the middle:
Host 'HOST_NAME' is blocked because of many connection errors.
Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'
The number of interrupted connect requests allowed is determined by the
value of the `max_connect_errors' system variable. After
`max_connect_errors' failed requests, `mysqld' assumes that something
is wrong (for example, that someone is trying to break in), and blocks
the host from further connections until you execute a `mysqladmin
flush-hosts' command or issue a `FLUSH HOSTS' statement. Server
system variables.
By default, `mysqld' blocks a host after 10 connection errors. You can
adjust the value by starting the server like this:
shell> mysqld_safe --max_connect_errors=10000 &
If you get this error message for a given host, you should first verify
that there isn't anything wrong with TCP/IP connections from that host.
If you are having network problems, it will do you no good to increase
the value of the `max_connect_errors' variable.
