xml import.

[skol]

I've noticed when after uploading all files on all mods that a database error is becoming regular when importing the xml file..Is there any reason for this?

What is the error?

If the error message contains "max_packet_bytes" or something like that then you need to boost that setting in my.cnf / my.ini and restart MySQL

Yes I already posted that in a few threads.That won't be available to people on shared hosting without the host changing it..Why are the imports exceeding the minimum limit?

 

[Fillip H.]

The reason why uploads are exceeding the limit is because of the language table - it serves as a phrase cache. If you open it in phpMyAdmin you'll see that the phrasegroup_<x> columns hold very large arrays.

The more products you install, the more phrases need to be added. When it eventually tips over a certain size, like 1 MB for some shared hosts, it becomes impossible for you to install any more products.

It's quite impossible to fix this on our end - you have to either switch to a less restrictive host or uninstall some large plugins that has lots of phrases in order to make room for more.
