Hi,
I experience difficulties to import databse of over 2 MB.
I want to be sure I can restore my whole site if neccesary. So I exported the db of 2.6 MB and I tried to import it again. I used 2 different scripts, but each time, german and french caracters like ß, ä, é, ç are not correct.
Then I tried with phpmyadmin by exporting into 2 files of less than 2 MB. The first file is imported correctly, but the second one not, phpmyadmin says it has wrong lines. I tried several times with the same result.
I tried again, but this time I imported first file2 and then file1, and this seems to work correctly. I tried twice with the same result.
I never had such problems before, but I never had a database > 2 MB.
cheers
Klaus

I saw this, thanks. Finally importing works 3 times on 4, and the real problem seems to be a charset problem. So I shall start a new thread.
