Mysql gone away and ... no return

[Lionel Gauliardon]

Hello,

I'm working with version 3.22.32 of mysql on Linux Mandrake 7.

Here is my problem, mysql server gone away during process. I test all queries with 
code error CR_SERVER_GONE_ERROR or CR_SERVER_LOST, and it is bad do mysql_ping() to 
reconnect to the server but this return the error cr_server_gone_error.

I also try mysql_init() and mysql_real_connect(), mysql_init is ok but 
musql_real_connect send the error 2002 : can't connect to local MySql server through 
socket ...

Well well, ... thank for your help.

    Lionel.
