Its quite common when importing a database of any size using phpMyAdmin, to blow the max_execution limit that comes with most php installations.

If you want to increase the maximum time allocated to phpMyAdmin rather than to your whole Apache/PHP environment:

In the alias file \wamp\alias\phpmyadmin.conf, just before , you can add

Assuming you have Apache 2.4.x

<Directory "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin4.0.4/">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
    AllowOverride all
    Require local
    # Increase runtime 
    php_admin_value max_execution_time 360
    php_admin_value max_input_time 360
</Directory>

Or is you have Apache 2.2.x

<Directory "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin4.0.4/">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
    AllowOverride all
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1 ::1 localhost
    # Increase runtime 
    php_admin_value max_execution_time 360
    php_admin_value max_input_time 360
</Directory>

Of course you could just use the MySQL Console as the console has no limits placed on it by PHP. This command used at the MySQL Console prompt mysql> will load the database dump file and do the restore.

source c:\path\to\your\database\dump\file.sql

Update

For some time now WAMPServer comes with these parameters set in the \wamp{64}\alias\phpmyadmin.conf file, however, occasionally even with the new defaults you may need to increase them for a very large import

Answer 4

Add following code

$cfg['ExecTimeLimit'] = 0;

in your phpmyadmin config.inc.php and it will solve your timeout problem, this should work on both XAMPP and WAMP
