当你要导入一个比较大的mysql数据库的时候，可能会产生这个错误:

mysql> source file.sql
ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away
No connection. Trying to reconnect...
Connection id: 2
Current database: *** NONE ***

ERROR 2006 (HY000): MySQL server has gone away
No connection. Trying to reconnect...
Connection id: 3
Current database: *** NONE ***

这是因为max_allowed_packet设置的太小了，再/etc/my.cnf中，将这个参数设置为64M或者根据实际情况设为更大的值就可以了

max_allowed_packet=64M
