I'm moving my host from GoDaddy to Fatcow and am having problems moving the MySQL db to Fatcow. They say they can't help -- it's a wp issue.
Lots of impossible-for-me-to-understand error messages when I try to upload my backup .sql file to Fatcow.
I read the wp help doc on this but it doesn't help:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress
- I backed up the MySQL db on the old godaddy site using "Simple WordPress Backup" which generated a .sql file
- I set up a new db, db username, and db password in Fatcow
- I edited the following 4 lines in my wp-config.php file to match the info I set up in Fatcow admin and FTP'd it to my /wordpress/ dir on fatcow:
define('DB_NAME', '***I put the new name here***');
/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', ''***I put the new name here***');
/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', ''***I put the new name password here***');
/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', ''***I put new the hostname here, copied from fatcow admin***');
When I try to upload my .sql backup file in fatcow I get the following error message:
