Question

When I try and run a sonar analysis I get this exception

com.mysql.jdbc.PacketTooBigException: Packet for query is too large
(1807198 > 1048576). You can change this value on the server by
setting the max_allowed_packet’ variable.

Where on the sonar server should I set this value?

I’m using Sonar 3.4.1 and MySQL 5.x

Answer 1

Locate the config file my.cnf (If your MySQL is running in Windows, locate my.ini)

Add this to the config file

[mysqld]
max_allowed_packet=256M

Then, restart mysql

• For Linux, service mysql restart
• For Windows
  • net stop mysql
  • net start mysql

Give it a Try !!!
