HHVM 3.6 has problem with MariaDB

March 17, 2015

The same script php file, always works smoothly on HHVM 3.2 to HHVM 3.5. Until I upgrade it to HHVM 3.6.

It is a simply script which use mysqli connection and so on. Now it is shown the error as below:

Connect failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)

I tried to find the answer and faild. So I upgrde the HHVM to nightly build version. It is 3.7-dev.

davidyin@fiob:/etc/hhvm$ hhvm --version
HipHop VM 3.7.0-dev (rel)
Compiler: heads/master-0-g0359d4a4bbb22c5defd7eb024194aed0af24c80b
Repo schema: 9008d5e6e7f6584d09ed3b14deceac5a34f363c1

And it did solve the error, and the script is working as expected.

But, later I found the reason why it happen.

Add

hhvm.mysql.socket = /tmp/mysql.sock

into server.ini

To specify the mysql socket and let HHVM knows how to connect mySQL server or MariaDB server.

I did not try the solution.  I found it here.

The test is almost same as I did before on php 5.5, php5.4 and php5.3, or php-fpm. It is running on the HHVM and Nginx.

The installation of Ubuntu 14.04, Nginx, MariaDB, HHVM is posted yesterday.

Using default HHVM settings. The HHVM is version 3.5.0, Nginx is v1.6.2.

Total time:               : 5.891 sec.

It took more time than any other php version. I am confused and try to repeat the test, by refreshing the page.
The first ten times, are all around 5.8 seconds. Lower 5.788, higher 6.162. The eleventh gave me a shot, it is only 1.44 seconds. I kept refresh the page and saw similar results, around 1.4 seconds.
