Dear All,

I need your kind help over this.

I had been testing my website at Comp#1 (laptop) and wished to shift the entire stuff onto another computer Comp#2.

So, I installed same version of XAMPP and installed same version of Drupal (6.5) over the other computer Comp#2 also.

Then, I exported Database (553 kB) and I tried importing the same in Comp#2 XAMPP Phpadmin interface, but unfortunately, after a few seconds, it gave me a warning "mysql server has gone away).

I tried doing it again but everytime it is giving me this warning.

I tried configuring my.ini (c:/windows) but scaling up the parameters but it seems it is not helping.

Can someone please guide me the correct way of doing it?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Check this out

Lots more info on Google

Another solution is to always empty the cache tacbles i.e. any DB table with the word cache in it e.g. cache_menu before you export as usually the problem is massive "blobs" in those tables.

Also the watchdog table can be huge (and its contents rather useless after a while).
