PHP Warning: Error while sending QUERY packet?

What you was doing at the site when get this error?

Updating WP? Or, something else?

I updated it yesterday. But this error is new.

[18-Sep-2019 12:45:32 UTC] PHP Warning: Error while sending QUERY packet. PID=16921 in /home2/site/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2007

I just tried the plugin today. thanks

Possibly the update took longer than the database connection timeout in mysql.

Try MANUALLY updating. Download WordPress again and unzip it, and use that to copy up. Access your server via SFTP or FTP, or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting provider’s documentation for specifics on these), and delete then replace your copies of everything on the server EXCEPT the wp-config.php file and the /wp-content/ directory with fresh copies from the download. This will effectively replace all of your core files without damaging your content and settings. (NOTE: do not delete the?wp-content?directory or your?wp-config.php?file). Please read the Manual Update directions first.

If the issue still persists, contact your hosting provider.

Backup: If you haven’t already done, always backup everything (including your database) before doing any actions, just in case something really goes wrong. You can never have enough backups! See https://www.ads-software.com/support/article/wordpress-backups/
