MySQL server has gone away

    I have just faced a very strange issue. At the top of my admin I started seeing some warnings:
    Warning: mysqli_query(): MySQL server has gone away in siteroot\wp-includes\wp-db.php on line 1878
    and
    Warning: mysqli_query(): Error reading result set's header in siteroot\wp-includes\wp-db.php on line 1878

    Those two warnings appear twice by the way. I am working on a local XAMPP installation. The strange issue is that I am also working on an almost identical copy of the site with the same plugins and the issue does not appear there. I also tried deactivating, uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin but that didn’t fix anything.

    What on earth could it be?

  • Hi,

    Can you replace the files with the files on this development version : https://github.com/phpbits/widget-options/tree/develop and let me know how it goes. This updates will be published soon and I hope the fixes on your issues will also works perfectly. Thanks!

    Cheers,

    Hi, thanks for that but I can’t recreate the problem anymore! Basically I changed the max_allowed_packet to 16M instead of 1M in the my.ini MySQL settings in XAMPP and that fixed the problem. In trying to recreate the problem again I set the max_allowed_packet back to 1M but I get no errors now(have restarted Apach and MySQL server of course).

    Hi just wanted to say that it actually works now without the development version. What I described before was with using the current live version. Somehow I cannot replicate it with the current version anymore.
