mysql error during anaylitic step

[adham]

hi

i'm getting the below error at unix env.

Cause: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException:
The last packet successfully received from the server was 67,554,998 milliseconds ago. The last packet sent successfully to the server was 67,554,998 milliseconds ago. is longer than the server configured value of 'wait_timeout'. You should consider either expiring and/or testing connection validity before use in your application, increasing the server configured values for client timeouts, or using the Connector/J connection property 'autoReconnect=true' to avoid this problem.;

1.does any one know how to resolve it?
2.it is possible to change the timeout configuration into 10 hours? and what will be the impaction on that?

thanks
