retrobsession Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hope somebody can help here My old ISP has backed up my database and I would like to restore to a new server and ISP, though I've never done it with this type file. (I used to backup and restore using mysql administrator) I have created a new database (test), extracted to my pc and noted this line near the top of the backup file -- Host: localhost Database: db_161700_db1 In simple terms, could someone advise the easiest way to restore (point me to some instructions), can I restore content to a different database?

PHP Monkeh Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 You can, do you have direct access to the MySQL command line or do you only have access via phpMyAdmin or some other web based admin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
