SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Lost connection to MySQL server during query [2013]

SQL

SELECT COUNT(attach_id) AS total_orphan FROM phpbb_attachments WHERE is_orphan = 1 AND filetime < 1293332135

BACKTRACE

FILE: includes/db/mysqli.php
LINE: 163
CALL: dbal->sql_error()

FILE: includes/acp/acp_main.php
LINE: 490
CALL: dbal_mysqli->sql_query()

FILE: includes/functions_module.php
LINE: 507
CALL: acp_main->main()

FILE: adm/index.php
LINE: 74
CALL: p_master->load_active()


Can someone help me and tell what I'm doing wrong with my phpbb?
I can access the website but this is what I get when I try to access the admins area...

Just a question, do you have any mods installed? If you did add something, did you run all the sql that is required (or run the install script for the mod)?

It doesn't looks like a modification error to me

The error occurs after a default install of PHPBB3 on my free hosting account. No mods have been installed.

did the install compete without error?

have you check phpbb's config file see if all the information is correct?

Yeah the forum works as expected without issue apart from when you try to access the admin section.

The above error is only shown when attempting to access the admin section of PHPBB if I keep hitting F5 eventually it will login after lets say 10 attempts....

if its a clean install id say to remove it and try again did you do the install with the latest version of bb from phpbb.com?

if you dont want to try that go into phpmyadmin and take a look at the table phpbb_attachments see if there is anything in that table that stands out to you

Yeah the forum works ok! Its only when you try to access the admin section of the site that the above error is displayed.

Looks like you have two phpbb installs, is the same error for both, or just one of them?

I do use phpbb myself, but I am in no way an expert on the script, I had a weird database error once and a bit investigation and searching on their support forum turned up removing all files inside the /cache folder as a possible solution, which did the trick for me. Might be worth trying.

Purging the cache wont help with the admin section, but it's worth a try, some config setting might have messed itself up

cheers dude

can you go back into the phpbb_attachemnts table in phpmyadmin take a screenshot of the entire page and show me that?

do you know what version of MYSQL you are using?

what version of phpbb are you installing?

this is a new clean database isnt it?
