PacketTooBigException when running a sonar analysis

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). Y

Answer 1

I had a same issue however, we had a limitation where we could not change the MySQL server configuration (max_allowed_packet)

I was able to get this working by changing the Client side jdbc URL configurations -> leaving the server config as is.

jdbc:mysql://[dbhost]:[dbport]?useUnicode=true&rewriteBatchedStatements=true&characterEncoding=utf8&useServerPrepStmts=true&maxAllowedPacket=20000000&useSSL=false

Check the mysql connector config reference here

There is one more post on SO that talks abt Client side change in detail - check here

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

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 !!!
