Help with this php?

I copied all of the php pages from one script on my site I had designed for me.

I put them on another website of mine, and created a database and changed the settings in the php file on the additional site. However, I don't know how to actually put the database in the MSQL section of godaddy. I see where I can export as mysql - and then do I just import into the other database the same exact thing I download and it should work?

So right now I get a database error when I try to add something to the database, cause there's no tables actually in the database.

Not sure my explaination is good, it usually sucks, I apologize.

  • Doesn't your script include an installation file?

    Could you paste the exported .sql here?

    Cheers

    • Naturally I figured it out. I just exported as a file, and then imported that same file into the additional database and voila.

      I have no idea how I figure this NONSENSE out - it's truly a miracle. =)
  • You should be using PHPMYADMIN - it has an IMPORT feature where you can select SQL files to import into your database. Ask GoDaddy if they offer PHPMYADMIN - a standard feature of CPANEL.

    • That's exactly where I was and exported the data table. =)
  • You can not import or copy your table directly in mysql database. For that you should create new tables and import your existing data with constraint.
