The perl script will warn "DBD::mysql::st execute failed: MySQL server

I have already set the auto reconnect, e.g.
$dbh->{mysql_auto_reconnect} = 1;
But problem still occur, any idea?
MySQL auto-reconnect is evil, because not all attributes of the
connection are restored.
What you are looking for is probably
$dbh->do("SET SESSION wait_timeout=36000");
but that my still not be what you *really* need.
With MySQL, it is always best to connect only just before the query
starts, and disconnect after. Use a block for that, or a "do {}".
