@Nick-B

There is also a workaround mentioned Ben here that might work as well:

I tried this workaround & was able to import the 486 MB sql database file created by WP Migrate Lite.

Found Local Database Port

Edited Local wp-config.php for this site

Imported Database with wp db import your-database-filename.sql
