How to Increase Import Size Limit in phpMyAdmin

I had the same problem with my working correctly by doing the following

changes into the php.ini file

post_max_size = 800M 
upload_max_filesize = 800M 
max_execution_time = 5000 
max_input_time = 5000 
memory_limit = 1000M 

now restart for the changes to take effect

If you are using WHM/Cpanel then in order to change that "Max: 50MiB" limit in the import section of phpmyadmin, you will have to change two values in WHM (Web Host Manager).

Step 1) Go to Tweak settings, find the "cPanel PHP Max upload size" change it according to your needs. Save changes.

Step 2) Go to Tweak settings, find the "cPanel PHP Max POST size" change it according to your needs. Save changes.

Go back to your phpMyadmin. The value should have changed.

Could you also increase post_max_size and see if it helps?

Uploading a file through an HTML form makes the upload treated like any other form element content, that's why increasing post_max_size should be required too.

Update : the final solution involved the command-line:

To export only 1 table you would do

mysqldump -u user_name -p your_password your_database_name your_table_name > dump_file.sql

and to import :

mysql -u your_user -p your_database < dump_file.sql 

'drop table your_tabe_name;' can also be added at the top of the import script if it's not already there, to ensure the table gets deleted before the script creates and fill it
