The fix is to increase the MySQL daemon’s max_allowed_packet. You can do this to a running daemon by logging in as Super and running the following commands.

# mysql -u admin -p

mysql> set global net_buffer_length=1000000;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

Then to import your dump:

gunzip < dump.sql.gz | mysql -u admin -p database
