Thanks very much for your answers. I svn'ed up to 2654 but am still seeing errors. The errors happen more frequently after the upgrade. What I'm getting back is:
File "C:\Django\hodie\kron.py", line 109, in ? db_save(this_inst) File "C:\Django\hodie\kron.py", line 14, in db_save obj.save() File "c:\python24\lib\site-packages\Django-0.91-py2.4.egg\django\utils\functional.py", line 3, in _curried return args[0](*(args[1:]+moreargs), **dict(kwargs.items() + morekwargs.items())) File "c:\python24\lib\site-packages\Django-0.91-py2.4.egg\django\core\meta\__init__.py", line 1029, in method_save db.db.commit() File "c:\python24\lib\site-packages\Django-0.91-py2.4.egg\django\core\db\backe nds\mysql.py", line 76, in commit self.connection.commit() _mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (2013, 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query') I tried using try/except on the database save but the 2013 error killed my app anyway. I have now managed to work around it by setting a lock on writing to the database (using thread.allocate_lock() ) and this doesn't kill the application too much. As soon as I allow the thred to write to the database I get the errors and I suspect that it is simultaneous writes from the thread and the main programme that is triggering the error.
