MySQL server has gone away

Posted on June 11, 2017

Hello! While running a PHP script I’ve encountered an error that says the MySQL server has gone away and it’s really getting annoying.

I’ve tried the following things with no success. Add these to /etc/mysql/my.cnf

wait_timeout = 28800
interactive_timeout = 28800
max_allowed_packet	= 256M

I’ve tried adding this to php.ini as well.

mysql.connect_timeout = 240

Nothing seems to work.

Thank you!
