I get the error "Warning: MySQL server has gone away query: INSERT INTO watchdog" when enabling the embedded media thumbnail. I understand this may not be an issue with the embedded media, but I have exhausted all other threads with a similar issue. I have increased the timeout to 20 minutes, given mysql the "huge" resources and still this persists. Every time I enable this module I have to re import my database as it is entirely corrupted afterwards.

Thanks for any help on an extremely frustrating issue.
