danielbone1 Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hello all, I have restored a database from one of my sites and want to move it to another site on my server. I have done a backup through Cpanel and Restore on the new URL thru Cpanel, and I get the "restoring database" page, but it doesn't show up. When I try it thru phpmyadmin, I get the "database exists" error. This is my first time trying this so I am hoping that I have followed the step correctly. I also checked for this error message on the boards first before posting. Didn't see anything as of yet. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielbone1 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 3 years and no posts? Well, it's about time. Nice to see you joining in. Welcome. The system is so easy to use I haven't had any questions! Tech support has already moved the database over for me and all seems to be well now. Just one question. Is this always the procedure when I need a database moved to another site on the same server? From reading the online manuals and posts on the boards it seems that I should have been able to do this myself. If so, not sure where I went wrong. Thanks again for the welcome and the instant help, D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Don Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 You could ask the techs that moved the database what is invloved just go back to your ticket and ask there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielbone1 Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 I did that right after posting here. I'll post back their response incase anyone else has the same question and searches about it. D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
