load-balanced mysql error: lost connection during query

[richmond.sterling]

Hi,

First, thanks for the great article you posted on:
http://www.howtoforge.com/loadbalanced_mysql_cluster_debian

We've implemented what you've done with some
difference: we're using Mandriva Linux instead. We
did not use Debian because the Debian distro we used
could not detect our SATA drives for some reason.

The problem we encounter is that we keep encountering
"Mysql connection lost during query" errors. It would
occur randomly throughout our webpage. We tried
different timeout settings for the nodes (thru mysql
CLI interface) to no avail. (Is not using the Debian
distro a big issue here?)

Do you know of any other website that talks about
resolving this?

Thanks for any info you can give regarding this,
Rich

What's the output of netstat -tap?
What's the exact error message? Is there anything in the logs?
