Importing a MySql Database error...

[rmar]

I've been moving server hosts, so I downloaded a .sql file for the site's database from phpMyAdmin on the old site, and then now I'm tring to import it on the new site. However, I'm getting an error and I'm not sure what/if there is anything I can do to fix it.

This is the error:

SQL query:

--
-- Database: `ghost`
--
-- --------------------------------------------------------
--
-- Table structure for table `EWRcarta_cache`
--
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `EWRcarta_cache` (
`page_id` int( 10 ) unsigned NOT NULL ,
`cache_date` int( 10 ) unsigned NOT NULL ,
`cache_content` mediumtext NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY ( `page_id` )
) ENGINE = InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8;

If you can give me any kind of suggestion, that would be great!

Have you actually created the database on the new server?

You see this line in the error message:

#1046 - No database selected

That means that you did not select a database to restore the backup file.

Thanks, that sure was dumb...

But, I'm getting a new error, and it appears to be with the syntax.

#2006 - MySQL server has gone away

Many thanks!

 

[Paul B]

The most common cause of that is the server timed out and closed the connection.

Try changing the wait_timeout value.

Imported to live website no problem for me.

The above issue only occurred when I import it to different database in my PC/localhost. I need it to test some modification. I have change the wait_timeout to 1000. Is it enough?

 

[Paul B]

Did it work with a value of 1000?

How are you importing to localhost?
Presumably something like: mysql -uroot -proot database_name < backup.sql
