To all the Dreamweaver/MySQL people out there,

I have a question that I hope you can help. I'm currently creating a dynamic website with Dreamweaver CS3. When I connected to the MySQL database through D-CS3, I received an error ("MySQL Error#: 2013, Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error:111). I already have 1 connection to the DB via Dreamweaver and had no issues. Any suggestions? I'm working via phpMyAdmin through the control panel of the hosting company I'm with. I been using MySQL via phpMyAdmin....I have no knowledge whatsoever with programming. Please help.

Thanks,
Craig

Hi Craig,

It seems that you have to increase the value for <b>max_allowed_packet</b>.

The following MySQL article explains this problem in more details:
dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/packet-too-large.html

I hope this helps you.
