I've created a dump file using mysqldump that is about 4MB. When I try to load it on another server using "mysql database < dump.sql" I get errors. If I create a smaller dump file (below 1MB) it loads without a problem. I noticed that the default max_allowed_packet size is 1MB, but I've not had much success changing it. Everytime I try to create a my.cnf file to reset the default, mysqld starts and then ends abruptly. I'm pretty sure I don't have any syntax errors in my my.cnf file. Any ideas?
