Thanks in advance!
Reconfigure the timeout period for the server, if you have control of the server. You can do this by putting a line in the [mysqld] group of the system-wide option file (e.g., /etc/my.cnf): [mysqld] set-variable = wait_timeout=n Where n is the timeout value. Or just send a do-nothing statement to the server every once in a while. Something like "SET @dummy = 1", perhaps. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
