Contact your hosts. It’s a server issue.

Regarding the error MySQL server has gone away:
——————————————–

Please note that this could happen due to 2 possibilities

1. Poorly optimized php scripts which takes a lot of time to execute and hence mysql quits processing
2. If there are too many mysql connections opened from your website which makes mysql to quit

Also make sure that you are closing mysql connection after you open and use a connection. This could also be a reason.

If you feel that your usage is genuine and your website is well optimized and such a usage is required, then please upgrade that particular account alone to any of the following accounts according to the needs for such a higher usage;

but I know site traffic is low & I dont need to upgrade the server

You might need to upgrade your server if the issue lies in memory usage through WordPress. If you’re with a lesser host, only a certain amount of memory is allowed per application. Your plugins alone could be causing you to exceed that limit.

@dauidus I don’t think so , because I am using similar plugins on another site on same server but getting no such errors.

@pioneer Valley Web Design, what should I do with scheduled cron jobs to solve my problem ??? no, I dont want to delete log file everyday but I want to solve the error ,,,

I have a 6.6 gb error_log file on the server. Is it safe to delete it?

@paulcashmere, are you getting error due to “MySQL server has gone away” ??
