Connect DB Error: 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 113 Cause #2

[Josef Renklint]

I got this error today when checking my blog from work. Right before I left home for work I posted a few photos, and then everything worked fine. I've posted over 110 photos since installing PP, and I've never had any issues like this.

Error Message:
Connect DB Error: Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 113 Cause #2

Please advice.

No worries Josef.

It was just a temporary thing with your host and their database server. The connection was lost meaning the server could have gone down in the middle of a query or the mysql servers timeout limit may be set way too low.

I just checked your site and all is fine. Keep an eye on the situation and if it becomes a regular event, contact your hosting provider and make them aware of the problem.

I'll get a system error: 111 Cause #2 messege... Is this the same problem?
