We suddenly started getting this error from our CMS server. Semi recently updated the server and CMS but we thought it was fine in the immediate aftermath maybe we missed it though. We are using Docker. Reboot didn’t fix it. Thoughts? Thank you for your time.
Fatal Error - sorry this shouldn’t happen. SQLSTATE[HY000] [2005] Unknown MySQL server host ‘mysql’ (110)
So it’s saying it can’t connect to the MySQL database.
First thing to check is if the database container is running, so run
docker ps -a
What does that output?
Output is as follows, and yes that status time for the mysql definitly seems wrong next to the others, not sure what it means.

What do the logs for it show?
docker-compose logsOh my, this over and over again, a lot.

You could try recreating the containers - so run
docker-compose down
docker-compose up -d
If you used a custom compose file, then be sure to add in that as part of the command - eg
docker-compose -f cms_custom-ports.yml down
docker-compose -f cms_custom-ports.yml up -d
Does that give any errors?
Effectively as much as it wants. It is a Hyper-V instance with Dynamic RAM turned on. (It is Ubuntu server OS on the VM.) But that said, it starts at 512MBs and scales up from there. Currently, it reads as having claimed 2710MBs for itself.
OK that should be fine. Please see my edits to my previous post.
I am not using a custom file, trying to keep it all very “stock” at the moment.
OK sure. So what happens if you recreate the containers?
docker-compose down
docker-compose up -d
docker-compose logsSorry, sorry, bad read on my part.

Your config.env file is still there I take it (and has the original MySQL password you chose set)? And shared/db still contains all your database files?
What are the permissions on the shared/db directory and files below it?
From my install, the permissions from the host are as follows:
alex@alex-desktop:~/shared/db$ ls -al

I’d expect yours to look the same, including the owner to be 999 (unless your host machine has a user with that ID). Similarly, I’d expect the same files to be present etc. What do you have?
config.env is still in place, the settings appear to be the same as they have been, our password is a long random string so its hard to be 100% but other custom mail settings are all there. And our permissions seem the same.

Is this running on something I can get remote access to? If so, PM me the details and I’ll have a look. I can send you a public SSH key if that’s easier than giving me username/password access over SSH.
Alternatively, tar up the shared/db folder and send it over to me, and I’ll see if I can get it running here. You’ll need to upload the tarball somewhere and PM me the link. I’m heading out shortly but will be back later tonight or tomorrow.
Can you just check your /var/log/syslog file for any lines that contain “Out of memory”.
eg
cat /var/log/syslog | grep "Out of memory"Were there any Out of Memory lines in your syslog?
For anyone who comes to this, did some PMing with Alex and it currently appears our database corrupted and we are looking at restoring from the last good backup.
I know this is an old post but I ran into this problem when I ran xibo in my docker swarm I added below to my config.env / cms-web and updated my stack. It worked.

I’m having same error. Tried everything but still getting error saying
Fatal Error - sorry this shouldn’t happen. SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2)
MySQL is trying to connect via socket rather than IP. I guess you’ve got “localhost” for MYSQL_HOST?
That won’t work, because localhost for the CMS container is itself, and not your host machine. You need to put in the local network name or IP of the machine that is running your MySQL server.
