Recently on our wedding photography blog we've been getting the following message when trying to upload images (after hitting submit). No changes have been made from our side and the only thing I was able to do based on Google searches was try a Database Repair which didnt help. Hoping someone can provide some insight on what needs to be done to avoid this issue so we can return to business as usual. Not sure why but each subsequent attempt produces a different Line Number.

A Database Error Occurred
Error Number: 2006

SELECT * FROM (`exp_channel_images`) WHERE `entry_id` = '91' AND `site_id` = '1'

Filename: third_party/channel_images/ft.channel_images.php
