Failed to execute query?
Hi,

On every single occasion that I try to work with fields in the admin an error message similar to this comes up:

Failed to execute query: 'ALTER TABLE Links DROP Keywords' Reason: Lost connection to MySQL server during query.

After this, the fields I'm working on seems to have been adjusted correctly despite the error message.

Any ideas about this?

Ditto! Only I just ran into a situation trying to use MySQLMan to modify my adcycle tables setting a primary key. Immediately after the...

MySQL said: Lost connection to MySQL server during query.
Query: ALTER TABLE ad CHANGE A0 A0 char(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''


...comes the error...

MySQL said: MySQL server has gone away.
Query: ALTER TABLE ad ADD PRIMARY KEY (A0)


...and it does NOT perform the function. Also looking for ideas.

Hi,

Sorry, I cant offer any insight on the reasons for this as soon after I had these problems, I moved servers and all went away.

The mySQL server used on the old account was flaky to say the least, So I believe this is where the problem lies, rather with link SQL. I could be wrong though!
