Problem:

When we run a large query (returns 4000 records) on a firewalled XServe (OS X 10.4) against Mysql database (outside firewall) on an AIX (Version 5.2) machine the database server intermittently generates the following errors:

ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away
No connection. Trying to reconnect...

or ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query

That behavior is only happening on that firewalled machine with mysql client Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.15, for apple-darwin8.2.0 (powerpc) using readline 5.0. This is the same version I am using on my computer with OS X installed without any problems.

I also noticed that sometimes the error - "ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away No connection. Trying to reconnect... " - shows up after the mysql client was idle for a few minutes.

I have seen posts and links to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/ gone-away.html. Although this gives some general idea, no solution seems to be directly applicable to our situation.

Appreciate your help,
Peter
