Apparently the ping() method is not the way to test if the connection
is still viable. I suppose you could wrap it in a try: and treat the
exception the same as a non-zero result, but I don't know if that's
appropriate.

I don't think I can be of further help on this one. Sorry.

You need someone who's familiar with the methods in the MySQLdb module.
Maybe Kev Green can help.
