Add or change the following to your PHP.ini or create the file if you don't have one  ..... 

; Maximum time (in seconds) for connect timeout. -1 means no limit
mysql.connect_timeout = 60

Yes I'm afraid I got that the same way YOU (or anyone) can do and it doesn't hurt a bit  .....

You are obviously NOT checking the "messages" choice which SEVERELY limits the searches.

I searched "mysql.connect_timeout" and all it brings now are MY posts...

What is the optimum timing on this?

Ohh, I hope that better use internet :)

seems in documentation at mysql.com must be described how work with phpMyAdmin, change settings etc.

Hey Lorren sent you a message on how to do this. It's a php.ini or .htaccess code you need to add depending on whether you have a cgi or apache module server. Fairly simple and fast either way. I don't know that it will solve all your problems but certainly worth a try.

Coding is slightly different and you need to know if you have a cgi or apache module setup, because you will get a big fat 500 error or do no good.

Let me know if you have any problems.

This is not dolphin coded, it's your server's php settings you need to tweak.

Hey gameutopia,

-

Received the email...thanks for the help! It SEEMS to be working, but only time will tell!

Stuart, I set it to 600.

600, is that seconds? 60 to 600 seems like quite a leap, are you having any problems? I was having the occasional time out. I set mine to 80 and I am waiting to see if that cures the problem. Why 600?

Stuart

It is what gameutopia had specified to try as I am running on a shared server.
