Wordpress on Azure random database connection error

Question

Jean-Loup Orgitello 46 MVP

Hello,

Since 2 days I have some random database connection errors.

The DB is hosted on Azure Database for MySQL flexible server (Standard_B1ms (1 vCore))

No configuration modifications were made. MySQL is still in 5.7. The DB size is approx 300 MB

Metrics look good

Connection is only open to an Azure virtual network and working normally for a last a year.

Any help is appreciated ;)

Can you actually contact the mysql database via your link that you have blocked out? Also, have you checked the Admin config for the credentials line?

Hello Jean-Loup,

First off, have you checked your error log? Do you see anything to do with the random drops, or is it purely a connection issue?

If it is purely a connection issue I'd recommend reporting this issue to GitHub:

Also, to create an Azure Support ticket:
