Are you troubled by the “MySQL server has gone away” error? You need not bother anymore. It indicates the database connection has timed out and can’t complete the requested operation. It often arises when a particular query is complex (and takes a long time to execute) or “idle” (which means after going too long without any connection, the server closes the connection).
One possible solution is to try reconnecting to the database by using the mysql_reconnect function, which could be called prior to every query being executed. This would give the applications the ability to re-create the connection before executing a query whenever the server has dropped the connection (and therefore minimizes the chance of encountering this error again).
