If you are getting the following error when trying to dump a large mysql database:
mysqldump: Error 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query when dumping table XXX
Then try using the --opt flag and save to a .sql.gz file to reduce the IO and the buffering.
Example command would be something like:
mysqldump --opt --quick --max_allowed_packet=1G -h *host* -u *User* -p*Passwort* *database* | gzip > /path/to/sql.gz
That should fix the issue.
Additionally, you can try to the following in /etc/my.cnf:
1. Raise the max packet value to 100M or higher.
2. Comment out timeout value if it's enabled.
Don't forget to restart the MySQL server.
I have been with ayksolutions for around 5 years and have been thoroughly impressed with them. All support tickets are answered within minutes, regardless of the time of day. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the support and services they provide. They are constantly doing crazy deals for servers as well. If you're looking for someone good and reliable to host with, from shared hosting to dedicated servers, I easily recommend ayksolutions.
I recently switched to AYK Solutions from Softlayer for my dedicated server requirements. I received a much better specification server at significantly reduced cost from what Softlayer could offer me, with many of the previously 'extra' features at Softlayer included in the base price offered by AYK. The support was second to none, and they were extremely helpful in transferring all of my old server accounts over for no additional fee whatsoever.
good service/support We have been with AYK for years. Good pricing/support. No complaints.
