I've been using *mysql-connector-python==1.2.2* and *django 1.6.x* with no 
problems for the last couple of months. I had some issues before that after 
inactive interval the database connections are becoming invalid and was 
causing a server error.
I added some lines into *django/db/backends/__init__.py *to reconnect in 
that case

diff --git a/django/db/backends/__init__.py b/django/db/backends/__init__.py
