FATAL ERROR: 'PROTOCOL_PACKETS_OUT_OF_ORDER' Got: 0, Expected: 17.

I have been having this issue all the time with my server. I just could never find a solution to my probleme. Here is the error I am getting:

events.js:353
      throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
      ^

Here is my connection (self made mini sql module):

const mysql = require('mysql')


class Database {
    constructor( config ) {
        this.connection = mysql.createConnection( config )
    }
    query( sql, args ) {
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            this.connection.query( sql, args, (err, res ) => {
                if (err) {return reject(err);};
                resolve(res)
            })
        })
    }
    end() {
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            this.connection.end(err => {
                if (err) {return reject(err);}

                resolve()
            })
        })
    }

}

module.exports = Database;

I only ever make one connection. Is this my problem?

I have the same problem. I set the connection to the base, sent a couple of requests and everything worked. After some time of inaction led to this error.
mysql@2.18.1 (github:mysqljs/mysql#3430c513d6b0ca279fb7c79b210c9301e9315658)

@TheRyGuy2008 I had the same problem. But once I change my connection from mysql.createConnection to mysql.createPool, the error never happen again...
