Default Restoring

Ok well I backed up my db to a .sql file which is 10 mb. I reinstalled vB and i need to restore my forum so i can get all my users usergroups and posts back. I need to know how other than phpmyadmin.

Thanks,
Mag1c

The best way is to use shell access - ssh.

mysql -uDBUSERNAME –p DATABASENAME < /PATH/TO/DUMP.SQL

DBUSERNAME - your mysql username
DATABASENAME - your mysql database name you want to restore to

you will be prompted for you mysql password

Depending on your host and your type of hosting account, you probably dont have ssh access anyways, you can use bigdump, its a php script based importer.

Is this a godaddy account and you cant get their crap server with phpmyadmin to import the db?

The only reliable method of backing up and restoring a database is with shell access via telnet or ssh. This is because backing up with a PHP script like that in the Admin CP or phpMyAdmin can result in PHP timeouts errors and an incomplete backup file. Please see the instructions here:

Backup:

Restore:

P.S. If you don't have shell access, some people have also reported success with these scripts:

MySQLDumper:
