Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communic

Post by antoney »

Hi,

The install went fine. It worked for a couple of days and then this morning I get this message when I visit the site:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 61 in /usr/www/users/acimino/on-being/include/db/mysql.inc.php on line 270

serendipity error: unable to connect to database - exiting.

Any ideas?

I did not change any settings.

Cheers,
Anthony

Hi!

please talk to your server/database administrator, this is a server issue, not caused by serendipity.
