this isn't directly a James issue, check your my.ini (or my.cnf) settings,
and change (or add) this line (under the [mysqld] section):

set-variable    = max_allowed_packet=1M
to something like
set-variable    = max_allowed_packet=16M
restart MySQL

MySQL will now accept 16M instead of the default 1M
