max_allowed_packet setting in MySQL should be increased

[SvenAelterman]

RECOMMENDED: It appears that your MySQL database server's "max_allowed_packet" setting is lower than recommended for optimal REDCap usage. It is suggested that you increase that setting to 128M (i.e., 128 MB) or higher, preferably to the maximum value of 1G (i.e., 1 GB). Setting it to the max value of 1G will not have any negative side effects. To change this setting, open your my.cnf (or my.ini) configuration file for MySQL and modify the line for max_allowed_packet to set it as the following: max_allowed_packet=1G. Then restart MySQL, and then reload this page.
