PFMaBiSmAd Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 AFAIK, the correct syntax should be - ENGINE=MyISAM Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/260778-mysql-gothca/#findComment-1336593 Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFMaBiSmAd Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 And the error or exact symptom you are getting is??? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/260778-mysql-gothca/#findComment-1336599 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Mysql 5.0 and below used either the ENGINE or TYPE keyword. Mysql 5.1 and above uses ENGINE only. What version of mysql was your backup made under and what version are you trying to restore under?

Muddy_Funster Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 another thing that would help would be to see the few lines either side of that one in the error, sometimes the problem isn't in the code listed in the error, which is why the error message uses the word near in stread of at.

Topshed Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 Thank you all for your support. I found after much conversation that my hosting site, Cpanel was exporting garbage because when they tried to export as a user (me) it also failed So they did a local dump and made it available to me to use. I am now waiting for an "It's fixed" from them.
