I've an Amazon EC2 Instance with 1GB memory. My Server keep crashes when I receive more then 25 active Users.

I'm trying to tune MySQL using mysqltuner.pl, and get the following results:

-------- Recommendations ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
    Reduce your overall MySQL memory footprint for system stability
    Dedicate this server to your database for highest performance.
    Configure your accounts with ip or subnets only, then update your configuration with skip-name-resolve=1
Variables to adjust:
  *** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
  *** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***
    query_cache_type (=0)
    query_cache_size (> 64M)
    innodb_log_file_size should be equals to 1/4 of buffer pool size (=16M) if possible.

  • First, if you changed anything based on the output of mysqltuner, undo those changes, and don't use that. It"s more of a cute toy than a useful tool. Then, realize that when you think MySQL is crashing, [that's very rarely what is actually happening](http://serverfault.com/a/560554/153161). – Michael - sqlbot Mar 11 '17 at 23:55
  • Oh... and `Status: +Aria ... +SEQUENCE`? I think you'll find this is actually MariaDB, not MySQL... although that doesn't change the applicability of the answer behind the link in my previous comment. – Michael - sqlbot Mar 11 '17 at 23:58

How do I address mysql crashing issue?

Find out why it is crashing. You can't solve this problem without knowing this.

Look in your logs, find relevant entries from around the time that the crash happens. Understand what the entries mean and then take actions to correct the issues.

*** MySQL's maximum memory usage is dangerously high ***
*** Add RAM before increasing MySQL buffer variables ***

I would be looking for memory exhaustion related errors perhaps even the OOM killer coming out to play as the reason for the crashing but YMMV.
