  • What you’re importing isn’t an .sql database dump – it’s a web page!

    That is a Webpage, not a sql db though.

    thnx for replies…..but i importing that very same db that i exported few days ago…..whats the problem then?

    must not have export db correctly as what you are trying to import is NOT a db but a webpage itself.

    i followed WP tutorial for exposrting db……..anyway, thnx all

    I’ve had the exact same problem.

    Exported clearly and directly from PHP MyAdmin, then tried to re-import same database 10 minutes later, and have the same error notification.

    Anyone have any further thoughts on what could be wrong?

    Please post a new topic.
