    I am following the directions here:
    http://tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/restore

    I have done step one of dropping the info in the data base. I’m on step 2B which says for me to use the upload button to upload “the” file. What file is “the” file… is it the tar file that says backup (which didn’t work) or am I looking for a particular .sql file?

    thanks in advance.

    It should be your sql database dump file.

    If you are just trying to drop your tables and import a new set (for a backup maybe), then the first video in the following post may help. It demonstrates moving a blog from root to a subdirectory, but you can skip all that and just start watching the video at about the 7min 45sec point.
