Hi guys!

 

(I hope this is appropriate for this forum, if not, feel free to kick me out)

 

I'm moving my blog from one host to another. I'm using PHP myAdmin and mySQL 5. All is good except the only thing I can't import is my former posts. Looks like there is trouble with the CREATE Table syntax, I used mySQL 4 with my last host. I get this error code:

 

#1170 - BLOB/TEXT column 'post_content' used in key specification without a key length

 

And this is some of the text I'm trying to import:

 

CREATE TABLE `wp_posts` (

  `ID` bigint(20) unsigned not null auto_increment,

  `post_author` bigint(20) unsigned not null default '0',

  `post_date` datetime not null default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',

  `post_date_gmt` datetime not null default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',

  `post_content` longtext not null,

  `post_title` text not null,

  `post_excerpt` text not null,

  `post_status` varchar(20) not null default 'publish',

  `comment_status` varchar(20) not null default 'open',

  `ping_status` varchar(20) not null default 'open',

  `post_password` varchar(20) not null,

  `post_name` varchar(200) not null,

  `to_ping` text not null,

  `pinged` text not null,

  `post_modified` datetime not null default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',

  `post_modified_gmt` datetime not null default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',

  `post_content_filtered` text not null,

  `post_parent` bigint(20) unsigned not null default '0',

  `guid` varchar(255) not null,

  `menu_order` int(11) not null default '0',

  `post_type` varchar(20) not null default 'post',

  `post_mime_type` varchar(100) not null,

  `comment_count` bigint(20) not null default '0',

  PRIMARY KEY (`ID`),

  KEY `post_name` (`post_name`),

  KEY `type_status_date` (`post_type`,`post_status`,`post_date`,`ID`),

  KEY `post_parent` (`post_parent`),

  KEY `yarpp_title` (`post_title`),

  KEY `yarpp_content` (`post_content`),

  KEY `crp_related` (`post_title`,`post_content`),

  KEY `crp_related_title` (`post_title`),

  KEY `crp_related_content` (`post_content`)

 

I did try to change the "`post_title` text not null" to " post_title` bigint (20)" and the same error just skipped to the next line. I have no idea if it's a good idea to change it like this?

 

If anyone has any ideas what I could do, I'd be forever grateful!
