Hello Abdul,

as far as you know, does your host apply any query limit in a specific amount of time?
Restoring the database requires a lot of queries in short period of time, sometimes hosts could block them.

Please ask your host if they are applying any limit to the number of queries you can do in any amount of time.

HI Davide i don't think this is the case

i tried to connect it to a new database on my old hosting company and i still get the same error.

Basically i made a backup of the website on a local machine and now i am trying to restore the backup to the new host.

could this be causing an issue?

There could be two possible causes for such error:
  1. Too many queries in a limited amount of time.
  2. The data contained in your database is "too long". While creating the backup, we write an INSERT query for each record in the database, which length depends by the data stored in that record. If the record has an huge amount of data, bigger than the amount the database could handle, you'll get that error.
    You can ask your host to increase the max_allowed_packet option inside MySQL.
    This is an hard limit of MySQL configuration, you'll receive the same error even if you'll try to restore your database in "the old way" directly from PhpMyAdmin

We can workaround the first error, while for the second there's no solution, you have to ask your host but I doubt they can change MySQL configuration settings.
