 * I built a site on my test server and now I want to move the server the only way
   I can actually see the database tables is via the backup generated from BWPS.
   Myphpadmin via MAMP won’t let me see the tables and when I upload to the remote
   server I get:
 * Error
    SQL query:
 * DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `TABLEPREFIXHERE_bwps_lockouts` ;
 * I am certain its my fault but I’m rather clueless as to how to resolve this. 
   I just want to upload the database, so I can move the site to the production 
   environment but the upload has failed twice now after several hours.

 * Glad to here it’s fixed. A suggestion in the future (if it helps) is to just 
   disable the plugin on the source install and reactivate on the new server.
