Error while importing sql in phpmyadmin

Question

While I'm trying to import a .sql backup in phpmyadmin , I get this error :

****Error**

SQL query:

--
-- Dumping data for table `wp_commentmeta`
--
INSERT INTO `wp_commentmeta` ( `meta_id` , `comment_id` , `meta_key` , `meta_value` )

VALUES ( 2, 2, '_wp_trash_meta_status', '0' ) , ( 3, 2, '_wp_trash_meta_time', '1398086942' ) ;

MySQL said:

1062 - Duplicate entry '2' for key 'PRIMARY'**

What should I do?

Answer 1

1. You cant duplicate the data with the same primary key

2. Truncate your current table and try it again (TRUNCATE your_table;)

   OR DELETE FROM your_table WHERE your_ID_field LIKE 2

3. IF your ID field is AUTO_INCREMENT field you can slove it like this

    INSERT INTO `wp_commentmeta` ( `meta_key` , `meta_value` ) VALUES ('_wp_trash_meta_status', '0' ), ('_wp_trash_meta_time', '1398086942' ) ;
