I keep getting the following error message, what wrong and how can I fix it:

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel: Invalid SQL: SELECT moderator.moderatorid,user.userid,user.username,user.usergroupid FROM moderator,user WHERE moderator.userid=user.userid AND moderator.forumid=52
mysql error: MySQL server has gone away
mysql error number: 2006

Thanks.

It means for some reason the MySQL server stopped working - possibly MySQL was in the process of being shut down. More info about the error is available here. There's not much we can do.
You should contact your host and ask them if MySQL is running stably, if there are any problems that they know of, and if you notice any patterns of when you get the errors (for example, every 10 minutes, or every hour, or every day at the same approximate time) let them know that too.
