Error while pulling mysql database in local mysql database
It's likely MySQL has reached net_read_timeout during operation - it defaults to 30 seconds (it happens with heroku).
Add in your MySQL configuration file:
net_read_timeout = 300net_write_timeout = 300restart MySQL and try again.
You can use command prompt for importing the DB, otherwise size constraint is there.
Use mysql command for the same. Refer: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/mysql-import-command/
