WampServer

From a web host I exported a MySql database as a .zip compressed file. When I use Wamp's phpMyAdmin to import the file, a message informs that the operation failed. What should I do?

Thanks.

Thanks, ifastud. But my database is bigger than the size allowed, so I'm forced to compress it. Is there any alternative?

Hello francoduina ,

Put ur uncompressed sql file in wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.1.32\bin folder .

Then on command prompt go to above path using CD comand.

Then put this line in front of that path>mysql -h localhost -u root -p database _name>urfile.sql

Here root is username of Phpmyadmin.Then enter password will come.Then enter ur phpmyadmin password.(most of the time it is blank.Just press enter).

Check ur database.Tables get created their.

Thanks,

Sheetal
