Re: Constant connection timeouts- error 2013

Thank you. That could be the issue. But I am having trouble making it stick (hence the Newbie).

I looked up what you were talking about and found a reference to change max_allowed_packet.

I called up the variable > show variables like "%packet%";

It gave me a response of 1M

Then I > SET GLOBAL max_allowed_packet=50*1024*1024;

It accepted the command. BUT when I type

> show variables like "%packet%";

and it gave me a response of 1M again

(also tried other values like 16).
