The problem is that you are starting mysql with the wrong arguments. I think you need to set the max_allowed_packet parameter to something larger than the default 1 M. I got mine to do that by using this command:
safe_mysqld --user=mysql -O key_buffer=16M -O table_cache=128 -O sort_buffer=4M -O record_buffer=1M -O max_allowed_packet=24M -Borries > > I am using Qt 3.0.5's QSql database classes to store > information in a MySQL database.
