The below are the Reasons to get the above error :

Aborted connections messages appear in the error log, the cause can be any of the following:

1) The client program did not call mysql_close() before exiting.

2) The client had been sleeping more than wait_timeout or interactive_timeout seconds without issuing any requests to the server.

3) The client program ended abruptly in the middle of a data transfer.

When any of these things happen, the server increments the Aborted_clients status variable.

The server increments the Aborted_connects status variable when the following things happen:

1) A client doesn’t have privileges to connect to a database.

2) A client uses an incorrect password.

3) A connection packet doesn’t contain the right information.

4) It takes more than connect_timeout seconds to get a connect packet.
