I'm using a php script which performs three xml queries to other three

get an error of this kind:
*Warning*: mysql_fetch_object(): supplied argument is not a valid
MySQL result resource in ...
This does not happen every time i run the script, only sometimes.
If I echo the query, copy and paste in phpmyadmin, or if I perform the
same query in a script that does only the query without the rest it
works!
After troubleshooting this issue I noticed that it usually failed when
I had a big set of ids (positive response from more than one server).
This means that the script used a bigger amount of memory and probably
more resources, but I did not get an "out of memory error", I got the
one described before.
My question is, is there any kind of limit somewhere in php5 or in
mysql (version 5)?
Thanks for help,

It's possible you're running into a limit, but it's quite large.

The "supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource" indicates
your mysql_query() returned false, probably. You should ALWAYS check
the result of mysql_query(), and if it fails, log the error (you really
don't want to display those errors to your users, do you?). Or, on a
development system, display the error.

Probably it's a problem related to php and mysql. if I copy and paste
the query in phpmyadmin it always works, so I wouldn't say it's a
mysql limit problem.

Probably it's a problem in your code. If it were a problem related to
php and mysql, phpmyadmin would fail also - it is also php and mysql.

Thank you Jerry, useful hint. This is the error logged: 2006: MySQL
server has gone away

Where has he gone? What can be the problem?
