Is there a fix for this problem?
I had a lot of issues getting my MySQL 5.0 installation to work the way I'd expect and ended up having it use the http protocol to check a super-basic PHP page that just tries to connect to a DB and returns a 500 Error if it can't (I set up a subdomain of my site for the script to live on, and am finding it's also a good way to test the Apache instance).
So far it's working and it gives Monit a very realistic sense of whether MySQL is able to respond to queries or not.
That said if MySQL 5.5.7 isn't working at all then I hope the developers can find time to fix it. I'll get there one day!
