having same issue. As i have a 1.5MB CSV to upload but have lots of lines. By the time it reads CSV, the connection is lost 'may be' so tried to use reconnect function but got the error.

I even tried to load database again.

Code:

//manually loading and reconnecting database again, it was disconnected for large CSV file.
$this->load->database();
$this->db->reconnect();

Code:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: reconnect()

The reconnect is a MySQL server command you enter it in the mySQL config file.

This could be caused by some very large posts. You will need to increase your limits in my.ini, usually max_allowed_packet.

I had this same problem. I was on version 1.7.0. I downloaded 1.7.2 and noticed that it had the reconnect() function in it. After upgrading to 1.7.2, this worked fine for me.
