Uploading my database

[clmirand]

Hi,
I need an instruction on how can I upload my existing database.
The video that I saw show how to create a database, however, it does not show how to can I make the columns inside the database or upload my existing one.
Thank you.

Hello clmirand,

If you are using phpMyAdmin for both of your mySQL databases, you an export the database from one of the phpMyAdmin pages and download it directly to your computer. You can do this by going into phpMyAdmin and selecting the database you are going to export. The export button is on the top row of tabs, about half way over, called 'Export'. You shouldn't need to change any settings.

In the new account, create a database named the same as the one you have exported. You can then go into phpMyAdmin, select the database, and click on 'Import', also located on the top row of links in phpMyAdmin. You can then upload your .sql file that was downloaded from the other phpMyAdmin. Once you have imported the .sql file you should see all the tables appear in your database.

Let me know if you have any problems, or are not using phpMyAdmin.

The servers are probably just under heavy load at the moment. If you try waiting an hour or two then try again you may find it will then work.
