Hi Don,

Haven't seen this before myself, but I did a little digging here: http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/rel_0_8/faq.html#mysql-server-has-gone-away

So, to differentiate between those two issues, does this happen very frequently or only after a long idle?

On occasion I'm getting and 'Internal Server error' on login with my production galaxy server.
If I refresh the page I'm able to login just fine.

This instance of galaxy has an apache frontend and a mysql server on the back end. If I look at my log files I see:

OperationalError: (OperationalError) (2006, 'MySQL server has gone away') 'SELECT galaxy_session.id AS galaxy_session_id.............

It looks like perhaps galaxy is trying to use a stale session or something like that. Has anyone else seen this problem and is there an easy solution aside from having users refresh the page?

Thanks,
