Hello all -- A bit of an update on my situation. As those who follow from the beginning may see, I somehow ended up with problems with my installation of courier-authlib, with pieces going amongst the missing. I completed an uninstall and a re-install of those packages (courier-imap and courier-authlib) and everything is back up and running. I have made the suggested extention, adding the 'wait_timeout' set to 432000 in my my.conf file and restarted MySQL. The installation is working, though it /did/ timeout the connection until I made that change. I'd really like to see that patch Johness mentions below, as I would be filled with greater confidence if I knew the system was built to attempt to re-open a connection with the database if the connection has dropped.
Thank you to all who helped to troubleshoot this problem with me. I appreciate it. On 6/28/06, Weberhofer GmbH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I have had the "MySQL Server has gone away..." problem with OpenSuSE 10.1. I think, the problem is, that mysql >= 5 does not automatically reconnect after the connection has been timed out. The following setting in /etc/my.cnf solved the problem for me: [mysqld] ... wait_timeout = 432000 It would be better to connect to MySQL in a different way: As described in the Documentation of mysql_options(), at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-options.html MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT should be set to true: "Enable or disable automatic reconnection to the server if the connection is found to have been lost. Reconnect has been off by default since MySQL 5.0.3; this option is new in 5.0.13 and provides a way to set reconnection behavior explicitly." I currently do not have time to create a patch, but if someone could provide me with an patch against the latest toaster-version I could recompile and test it.
