importing database

(1/1)

elliothere:
All my files got dumped, so I re uploaded and installed smf and now I want to import my backup database, but my phpmyadmin doesn't seem to have an import option?  I'm using the latest stable version (vs. 2.6.0-pl3). I see "export," but no "import." Please help me out here.... :-\

Grudge:
It will do, but it's under the "SQL" tag. Just click "SQL" on phpMyAdmin, and upload the file using the "Browse" button

Elissen:
After selecting your database you can go to sql and select the file there I think, or try [Unknown]'s tool: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=18350.0 (look at the second page for a newer version)

edit: grudge beaten me to it while I was looking for that tool :)

elliothere:
Well importing via phpmyadmin didn't work right, but [unknown]'s tool worked great. :) That should really be implemented in the next release of SMF....
