I have my forums on my old host and I uploaded them onto x10 hosting. I looked in the MySQL but I can't find a Import SQL anywhere. I'm using IPB. Do I just re-install the board?

It's not working, I click on go when the file is in the box and I set everything and it just doesn't do anything

MySQL said: Documentation
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1' at line 28

This is an error I got when trying to up it

As in the config file where you have the SQL database name and password and stuff. Already tried that and then it still gave me an SQL error

Can't you just log into your old board make a back up , log in to your new board and then import it :/ Would save the hassle.

I've decided just to recreate everything. I want to organize it a different way and they skin screwed everything up. I'll just freshly restart it
