#51: MySQL server has gone away

As I am investigating the above issue, I learn about the mysqli.reconnect php.ini setting. At first, I looked for the corresponding myslq.reconnect setting: I was under a wrong impression of what mysqli was.

I'm reading about it now:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/mysqli.overview.php

So, now the question is: do I need to set up my server differently to benefit from the mysql-Improved (mysqli) extensions? How?

On ubuntu, mysqli is installed by default together with mysql.

So, the only thing I had to do was modify the settings.php of my Drupal installation. Easy.
