Changing Hosts - Reloading vB
*waves* Hey guys, hope you can help me out here.
I'm in the process of switching hosts for my vB. All is going great, except moving the database itself. The backup was perfect, no worries there. The problem is reloading the database into the new host. I created a new database with the same name and user. I then used phpmyadmin, and uploaded the backed-up database. It goes great, until it gets to 100% and then freezes. Nothing happens, no change. I've tried over and over, and I get the same results. I'm running on PHP4, using localhost, blah blah, I don't have any idea what type of information you'd need for this, lol. If you could help me out, that'd be great. Thanks! |

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 300 seconds exceeded in /usr/local/cpanel/base/3rdparty/phpMyAdmin/libraries/read_dump.lib.php on line 77 ...D'oh! |

What host are you using anyway? are you dedicated, or on shared? |

I'm using a dedicated Hostdime. They're helpful, but I do suggest THAT NO ONE USE THEM for vB. They're down every 2. effing 2 seconds...*twitch* I'm switching to a reseller plan on Netrillium.

Do you have SSH on the server you are trying to move the database too?

Cripes, I think so. Don't most hosts have that? But I didn't see it on the list...then again, I could be a fool of a Took, considering I don't even know what SSH is. Heh. *idiot*
Here's Netrillium's list of what I have: True CGI Support Server Side Includes Sendmail Support Perl 5.6.1 MySQL 3.23.56 PhpMyAdmin PHP 4.3.3 .htaccess Abilities Custom Error Pages Free Script Installations |

If you have cPanel there maybe an option to request SSH access in it if they allow it. Thats the best and most reliable way to import your database.

I've discovered the backup/restore feature in Cpanel. Do you suggest this as an effective way of getting this database transferred?

*twitch* Nevermind, this doesn't work either--it just takes my backed-up database and does some...really weird crap with it.
*searches endlessly for SSH* |

AHH! Woo, I got it! Finally Thanks to Lee and DenzoForums for your help!
Just incase anyone else would like to know how I did this.... 1. Make sure you're using Cpanel for your current and new host. 2. Go to "Backup" on the Cpanel of your current host. 3. Under Download a MySQL Database Backup, click the database you want to move. 4. Download it wherever you want on your computer. 5. Go to your NEW SERVER'S (where you're moving the database to) cpanel. 6. Click "Backup" 7. Find Restore a MySQL Database 8. Browse for the databse you saved, and click "Upload" 9. Done! Thanks again, guys! |
