Problem:
How do I restore a previously-saved MySQL Database?
Solution:
This procedure will allow you to import an exported database in .sql format into an existing database on your hosting account.
Â
- Login to your cPanel.
- Navigate to the "Databases" category in cPanel.
- Select the "phpMyAdmin" icon.
- On the left, select the database you wish to import to.
- Select "Import", at the top.
- Select the "Browse" button, and select your desired .sql file.
- Select the "Go" button at the bottom right to begin importing.
Note: This can take a significant period of time, depending on the size of the file being imported, the number of operations the .sql file must perform, and a number of other variables.
Note: You may only import .sql files up to 50MB in size with this tool.
