MySQL server has gone away.

Dolphin, 7.21

I haven't change anything for a long time, until it was started few weeks ago, i'm getting cron jobs coming through my admin's box,.maybe 5 times a day, but depends.

-----------

Database access error. 

Description: MySQL server has gone away.

No further informations...   

Thanks,

PJ.

The database server is not running.  It may have shut because it ran out of storage space.  If mysql is using the tmp directory, other things may have place files in that directory as well.resulting in it running out of space.

What do you know about operating servers?  Is this a dedicated or VPS/Cloud server?  If you are the sys-admin, then try starting MySQL;

If you don't have any idea what to do, send me a PM.

I'm getting it now,  it's on sharing server at hostforweb.com  (on business plan)..  however I will try the tweak in the .htaccess file to  increase more memory to run,

php_value memory_limit 128M

I will let you know if that has stopped, then that's the problem solved. 

It wasn't the memory, 

I moved to PHP to 5.4, from 5.6.

reset default values, added eaccelerator instead APC.

In the php configure and it was 512mb memory to run, 

No more cron jobs error, thanks for giving me a clue and it was problem solved. 

It came back again, but I have moved my web over to fastcomet.com, host for web is now a joke.  Don't rent at server at HFW because limited 1GB ram, I get too many failed processing from the video who uploaded.

Fast comet provides free SSL, free RMS,  2GB ram, on the sharing server at the business plan.

now I can upload 200mb video without a problem at ffmpeg, it did convert very fast. 10 times way better than HFW.  I don't see any more cron jobs errors.
