Subject:Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes
View as plain text  
Hi -

I'm trying to import some data into a MySQL database, which was dumped 
from mysqldump.  Just looking at the .sql file generated, there's only 
about 7000 lines, on an 800M dump.  I guess this tells me I have some 
extremely long lines, which would be happy to take up more than 
'max_allowed_packet' bytes, which is set to 16M.

The specific error I get is:

ERROR 1153 (08S01) at line 3132: Got a packet bigger than 
'max_allowed_packet' bytes

Using:

mysql -uroot -p database < /tmp/800MSQLFile.sql

under MySQL 5.0.21.

I don't have much experience importing data in this manner, so maybe I'm 
missing something here.  If anyone wouldn't mind sharing some tips on 
how to do this, I would grealy appreciate it.

Should I increase max_allowed_packet even further?  Is there a way to 
make this value "adaptive", as to avoid error?

Thanks!
