How can I delete or replace a mySQL dump file on a database in phpmyadmin?

Question

I have just imported a mySQL dump file on a database from another database.

The reason for this is that I am following these steps to transfer a website from one server to another one. I don't think I did it right as I am not getting what I should get on step 8: in a web browser go to: http://www.yourNewDomain.com/wp-change-domain.php .

How can I delete or replace a mySQL dump file on a database in phpmyadmin? I will try to import my database again to see if step 8 works.

Answer 1

Since you are not providing any data it's hard to tell what's wrong with step 8 of your tutorial. However, to answer your question, I suppose you have imported the entire wordpress database: if the dump was not correct and you want to import it again, you should delete it first with:

DROP DATABASE db_name;

and then reimport it. Be very careful, don't do that if you aren't sure what you are doing, you could lose data!
