Is there a size limit for uploads to the File Manager?

Permalink
When I try to upload large files (over 40 megs or so) I keep getting: Error while sending QUERY packet

Even if I upload using FTP and try to import using the More Options link, I still get the same error.

I'm sure it's got something to do with mySQL, but it doesn't make any sense to me.

After a quick google search of this error it looks like you will need to adjust these two settings in your php.ini

max_allowed_packet
wait_timeout

Thanks for the answer, but I don't think those variables can be set in the php.ini, can they?

I thought they had to be changed in my.cnf (which I can't do because I'm on a shared server).

That would be a question for your hosting provider.
