Backup Help
 

I hope I am posting this in the correct place.

I have backed up my database using the database backup on vbulletin, have it saved on my computer as an sql file but what I was wondering is how do I upload it to a new sql database for it to be used on a new vbulletin setup?

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know how to do this? Only wanting to move over members, usergroups and thats all I have backed up what I need but I am unsure of how to upload the file backup to a new vbulletin install with it being an sql file

Thanks

I normally use SSH to import my database nowadays but before i used to just use the import feature in phpmyadmin, although it dont like large imports but you can split it down and import it in parts...

Theres 2 ways in phpmyadmin

1. import the file as is (if not too big)
2. Use the sql feature, Select the text from the file that you want and past in to the sql query box

Hope this helps a little
