"MySQL server has gone away" issue - wearwolfie - 2017-12-31
Hi there...
My Zenphoto site has started throwing the following error...
Fatal error: MySQLi Error: ( SELECT * FROM [prefix]news WHERE date

The error means that your database server is not resonding correctly or Zenphoto is not configured correctly.
Why that might be I cannot answer. I suggest to contact your host about this issue as it might be caused by a server configuration change.
In any case also check your Zenphoto config file in /zp-data/zenphoto.cfg.php that it really has the correct database credentials. If unsure contact also your host.
I modified your discussion title as this is not related to accessing previous versions (this version is available for download on GitHub in any case).
Regarding the restoring of setup files please see here:

This all will of course not work if MySQL is not working correctly.
