1) Max allowed packet is usually a replication not an important error. It can be described as a "I can not find the information it is looking for inside my search window" error.
2) It is more often associated with corruption then a true packet size error. It also occasionally manifests when moving from 64 to 32 bit.  But it is possible that it is just a max packet problem
3) using the client is more direct and less prone to error then using PHP my admin

Hi,

I'm trying to import a file into MySql on CentOS 6.6 and mysql Server version: 5.1.73.

Un compressed the file is 611,285,457b or about 610MB.  This is a production server and I am concerned about setting PHP upload_max_filesize that large.

I tried to import via the command line and that failed.  Tried uploading as a gz via PhpMyAdmin... that failed also.  And I surely do not want to increase the memory allotted to PHP...

I tried this:

mysql --max_allowed_packet=650M -u root -p database < data.sql

And received this error :  ERROR 1153 (08S01) at line 1370225: Got a packet bigger than 'max_allowed_packet' bytes

Thanks in advance!!  Any suggestions?

Keith
