Hi,

I'm sure this is probably an issue more related to my site setup but it is definitely a big issue for me and has already cost me more than a days work.

The steps I take to reproduce this issue on my site is as such:
1. Upload new version of ImageField 5.x-2.0-rc2 over the top of working version 5.x-2.0-rc1
2. Empty `cache_content` table of database via phpMyAdmin
3. Goto page.
4. Wait multiple minutes while server has issues displaying page.
5. Page finally loads with 690 lines worth of errors (attached), most of which are probably irrelevant.
6. Check server (rPath LAMP Virtual Appliance) and confirm MySQL server has crashed.

I'd be more to happy to supply any more information that I can, but I'm sure this is an obscure issue as if it was common it would have already been posted here.

Cheers.

Those bugs aren't related to imagefield I don't think. Your mysql server seems to be dropping its connection for some reason. Why again do you think this is related to imagefield?

Hi dopry,

The reason that I would presume it is related to imagefield is that my site works perfectly no matter what I do until I upgrade imagefield from rc1 to rc2, then it dies.

For the moment I've just stuck with rc1 and I have no issues at all, but when I've got a spare minute I will attempt the rc2 upgrade again and see if I can supply you with anymore information.

Just a quick update.

I'm now doing my development on a Ubuntu 7.10 VM and I can confirm that the issue also occurs there, no matter what I do, install, configure, etc it all works fine until I do the upgrade to RC2 where it crashes the server in a bad way.

I will hopefully get a chance tomorrow to go through and pinpoint what exactly in my site is being affected by the upgrade. Even if it is something specific to my setup of this site it certainly should be crashing the server in such a way.

try with latest 2.x... I made a few fixes, but they should have the most impact on people using private files.
