使用phpMyAdmin导入MySQL数据库时出错

Question

I am importing a MySQL database from another server to my own server using phpMyAdmin. But the problem is:

I go into import then choose a file which have extension like .sql , .xml . After this procedure I click on the ok button but this doesn't give any response and doesn't even do anything, the page just remains stable.

I also tried with MySQL command prompt using mysqldump .

mysqldump -u username -p databse > database name

but this is also giving an error.

Can any one please help me in solving this?

Answer 1

This command is used to export :

mysqldump -h hostname -u username -p database > sql_file_name

to import you should use

mysql -h hostname -u username -p database < full_file_path

Answer 2

first you need to export a DB from the first server. on your server you first need to create a new DB and than do the import. the DB you imported will go to the DB you just created.
