    I used the WordPress Database Backup plugin to export a copy of database of a Mysql 4.0 table.

    I attempted through phpmyadmin to import the database backup file to a 5.0 version database but is said it could not read the file.

    My hosting provider is 1and1.com

    Does someone know a fix???

    MySQL recommends upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 first. I’m looking into this because I’m in your same situation with the same host.

    if you currently are running MySQL 4.0 and wish to upgrade to a newer series, upgrade to MySQL 4.1 first before upgrading to 5.0, and so forth.

    Check out http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/upgrading-from-previous-series.html

    It sure would have been great if the download page had warned that 2.9 would only install on MySQL version 4.1 or higher. For now I’m sticking with the last version.
