 * Hi guys,
 * for a few days I have a problem with my website. On my post pages I always get
   an error message like this:
 * **Warning: Error while sending QUERY packet. PID=22612 in /www/htdocs/w013c40e/
   produkt-testbericht.de/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1868**
 * Before that I had a problem with the allowed memory size of the website (“**Fatal
   error: Allowed memory size of XXXXX bytes exhausted (tried to allocate XXXX bytes)**“).
   This one I solved by changing the “define(**‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘800M’**);”. As
   I solved this problem the error with the QUERY packet I mentioned before appeared.
 * A page example on my website: [http://produkt-testbericht.de/auto-politur-test/](http://produkt-testbericht.de/auto-politur-test/)
 * Unfortunately I’am not into MySQL or programming in any case. I contacted my 
   server admin and searched online. Possibilities are changing the “max_allowed_packet”
   which is at 32M at the moment. Or the max_timeout. Or maybe it is another problem?
 * I am very thankful for every help. Thank you very much guys.

    Have you tried: – deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily
   to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this
   works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(
   s). – If you can’t get into your admin dashboard, try [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   by [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients). Sometimes, an apparently inactive
   plugin can still cause problems. Also remember to deactivate any plugins in the
   mu-plugins folder (if you have created such folder). The easiest way is to rename
   that folder to mu-plugins-old. – switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty
   Sixteen) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue(
   theme functions can interfere like plugins). If you don’t have access to your
   admin area, use [FTP ](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients), or your web-host’s
   cPanel or whatever file management application your host provides (no Dashboard
   access required). Navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and switch to the default theme
   by renaming your current theme’s folder by adding “-old” to the end of the folder
   name. Alternately, you can remove other themes except the default theme. That
   will force your site to use it.
