The only problem I can see from the above is that mysql is reporting an aborted connection and people might not like that report. Programming/systemwise, it is not a problem. What that report means is that a program that opened a connection to the mysql database did not call mysql_close() before exiting. That does not cause any mysql problems. A way to think about this is that vqregister didn't say goodbye before exiting, it just left :) The way to get rid of this report is to audit the vqregister software and make a mysql_close before any exit() calls.
