MySql import huge value

If you getting errors like "MySQL server has gone away" while trying to restore backup, probably you have some very large even huge values in inserts.

To fix this: connect to mysql, set bigger restriction value for max_allowed_packet and try import backup again.

set global max_allowed_packet=128*1024*1024;

Here is how it will look:

C:\Users\mac>mysql -u root -p[ENTER]
Enter password:[ENTER]
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 414
