WordPress 2.01 database error on publishing a post (3 posts)

    Occacionally I receive this error, when publishing a new post.

    WordPress database error: [Lost connection to MySQL server during query]
    INSERT INTO wp_postmeta (post_id,meta_key,meta_value) VALUES ('11','_pingme','1')

    Sometimes this does not occur.

    The problem was already discussed, but no solution was given.

    Is anything new about that out there?

    In Administration > Options > Writing might remove pingomatic from Update Services

    or problems with your host?

    Well, it looks like the pingomatic service is the problem. I have used the manual configuration too and got some time outs (for example http://xping.pubsub.com/ping/). Then I removed all ping services and the problem was gone.

    Is it possible to set a higher time out value in wordpress or even better would you correct the problem in wordpress so that it automatically will disable unresponsable ping services on the ping services list?
