    I’m trying to import the database from my live site with updraft enabled to my local site to use for testing.

    In phpMyAdmin I’ve tried to import the db.gz file and I get the following error:

    Error
    MySQL said: Documentation

    #2006 – MySQL server has gone away

    Please help.

    Hi,

    We’ve not got the resources to provide support for phpMyAdmin, so I’ll just reply the once and hope that’s OK; your MySQL server has crashed, and the cause is almost certainly that you need to increase the max_packet_size setting in its configuration (as your database backup has a row too large for the current setting).

    Thank you! I didn’t realize this was a phpMyAdmin question, I thought maybe it had something to do with the backup generated by the plugin.

    Thank you so much, problem has been fixed.
