I was bitten by this once when trying to write records to the MySQL server that were bigger than the server's configured maximum packet size -- the MySQL server would simply drop the connection, prompting DBI to give that error. I imagine that if you're using Apache::DBI, restarting Apache would appear to fix the connection, leading you to suspect a mod_perl problem.
