Strange MYSQL error

[Feri]

Hi guys. I'm having an issue with uploads which worked fine until now. This error comes when I try to upload like 250-300 images at once and then after 150 it just stops with an error code. The error code is the same for multiple files:

While executing query 'INSERT INTO cpg16x_pictures (aid, filepath, filename, filesize, total_filesize, pwidth, pheight, ctime, owner_id, title, caption, keywords, approved, user1, user2, user3, user4, pic_raw_ip, pic_hdr_ip, position, guest_token) VALUES ('49', 'userpics/10001/49/', '8471680207_6809fd557b_o~1.png', '365707', '466881', '380', '240', '1571265532', '1', '', '', '', 'YES', '', '', '', '', '', '', '0', '')' in include/picmgmt.inc.php on line 184

database error: 2006 : MySQL server has gone away

Could you guys please help me out, because I've been searching for hours now and nothing relevant has been found yet.

It is usually the hosting that is the problem with errors like this. Some have strict limits, especially on shared servers, so everyone gets a fair shot at processor and disk time.

I see, and is there any way to bypass that?

How about ... not upload so many at one time.
