Hello and Greetings mysql list, A few weeks ago, I posted a question here about importing a database to my local XP pro system and getting loads of MySQL server went away errors during the import. I got suggestions about increasing max packet size and a few other parameters which I followed but still could not get a clean import with out the server going away error.
I have since some more troubleshooting to try to narrow in on the source of the problem. The table that is getting the error I have isolated and know that it is a PhotoPlog data table that contains all the binary images that it is storing. The Table has two fields defined with mediumblob, one for the picture and the second one for the thumbnail. I have used phpMySQL to export this table and noticed that it is dumping these fields as HEX and not binary and think that this may be the source of the problem with importing to another system. Anyone have any thoughts on MediumBlog being dumped out as HEX? The other troublesome part of this problem is that only some of the records have problems and no clue what the distinction is between the ones that work and the ones that fail? Any pointer greatly appreciated as always.
