Hi guys Am trying to import a database that is around 100mb and when phpMyAdmin has a 32mb restriction. I believe I need to you the sql command line since that wont have any size restrictions. Can anyone help me with this. Thanks Dan
Hello , You can use the SQL command line to restore the database . Before that edit the my.ini file and set the max_allowed_packet=100M . Also increase the wait_timeout and connect_timeout parameters .
Hi, You need SSH access of your server to make changes in config file of MySQL my.cnf But if you are on a shared hosting server then you can not modify its my.cnf Its your server administrator who can get this done for you
Or, You can do one thing, connect your database using tools like MySQL-Front, SQL-Yog etc. and here you can import your backup file even though its large in size
the best method is to use an sql splitter and upload the database individualy. read more source: http://orangecopper.com/blog/how-to-import-large-sql-database-files-using-phpmyadmin regards Joshu
