Dozens of DB Errors

[Frank Woolf]

Ever since I set up vBulletin and PPClassifieds I have been getting DB Error messages at the rate of about 10 error messages to one successful classifieds post. This is happening on two separate sites on the same server.

I thought the problem was caused by server load and have been running "Repair database" within Cpanel that reports everything is OK but the errors just keep coming.

I recently installed Photopost Pro on one of the sites and while the Classifieds continues to get hundreds of database errors Photopost Pro is not getting any errors at all.

vBulletin, ppClasifieds and Photopost are sharing the same database so this would indicate that the server is OK and there may be a problem with ppClassifieds.

I have copied an example of one of the most common error messages below and would really appreciate any help.

That issue is a server issue where mysql is shutting down on your site. You might want to contact your host about this.

Thanks Chuck,

I contacted them before and they said all is OK just repair the database. Armed with your advice I will get back to them.
