 * Hi all,
    I don’t know why I’m getting this error, never gave me and migrated 
   already some db on godaddy hosting service. By the way, the error is this: SQL
   query:
 * #
    # Table structure of table `wp_commentmeta` # CREATE TABLE `wp_commentmeta`(
 *  `meta_id` BIGINT( 20 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
    `comment_id` BIGINT(
   20 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT ‘0’, `meta_key` VARCHAR( 255 ) DEFAULT NULL , `
   meta_value` LONGTEXT, PRIMARY KEY ( `meta_id` ) , KEY `comment_id` ( `comment_id`),
   KEY `meta_key` ( `meta_key` ) ) ENGINE = Aria DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8PAGE_CHECKSUM
   =1;
 * MySQL said:
 * #1286 – Unknown table engine ‘Aria’
    How can I solve this to import successfully
   the db? Thanks all

 * Hi Fabio, looks like you’re trying to migrate from MySQL server that supports
   the Aria storage engine to one that doesn’t. You could try update all the “ENGINE
   = Aria” to “ENGINE = InnoDB” or “ENGINE = MyISAM”.
