Problem is that I can't really put all the details in here because of an
NDA. What's going on is that a query with multiple left joins is
apparently spooking mySQL. Server doesn't crash but I get:
"Query Failed:SELECT accounts.id as account_id.. LEFT JOIN ... LEFT JOIN
.... LEFT JOIN ..." (Big query is what I mean) "... amount DESC LIMIT 0,5
::MySQL error 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query"
I have never seen that error before (but I'm not a mysql pro). I wanted
to see what was up so I pasted the whole query into phpMyAdmin, and (!):
SQL query:
SHOW TABLE STATUS LIKE 'opportunities';
MySQL said: Documentation
#2006 - MySQL server has gone away
Ow. Don't go away, server! Don't leave me here! That line about TABLE
STATUS isn't actually in the query; something else is triggering it...
Thought it might be a version problem but I'm using 5.0.15 and doc says
the app is compatible with 5.0.x.
