A problem I frequently encounter when working with databases (especially large ones), is that they will cause problems when importing through PhpMyAdmin.

An easy solution I’ve found is to use the BigDump script, as shown in the video below. Just thought I’d share with you guys in the hope that it will also be useful to those of you who encounter this issue with PhpMyAdmin.
