How do I import a .sql file via phpMyAdmin? Print

  • 0

Use phpMyAdmin to restore a database backup or move a database from another host.

Open your control panel: log in to the FariHost Client Area, go to Services → My Services, choose your hosting plan and click Login to Control Panel.

  1. Open phpMyAdmin from the MySQL Databases section.
  2. Click the database you want to import into on the left. Create an empty database first if needed.
  3. Open the Import tab and click Choose File to select your .sql (or .sql.zip / .sql.gz) file.
  4. Click Import (or Go) at the bottom and wait for the success message.

File too large or timing out? Use the SSH import method, or open a ticket and we'll import it for you.
