Archiving occasionally returning 'The mysql driver is not currently installed'

Hi there,

on our server the archiving script occasionally returns the following output:


Starting Piwik reports archiving...

Error: The mysql driver is not currently installed

Reports archiving finished.
---------------------------
Starting Scheduled tasks...

Error: The mysql driver is not currently installed

Finished Scheduled tasks.

The odd thing is, that this doesn’t seem to happen every time. At other times it will run fine. As far as I can see it runs fine about 50% of the cases.

I’m calling the archiving script with the following cron command:


00 */2 * * * bash $/misc/cron/archive.sh > $/misc/cron/archive.log

where $ is obviously the path to my webroot.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like a configuration issue, please ask your webhost / sysadmin
