No table found in uploaded DB from backup.sql file

[louboumian]

I just created a copy of my DB used by my forum to run a development forum where I can test MODs before implementing them.

I then tried to upload my backup DB file (forum.sql) to populate my empty DB_dev, using PHPMyadmin SQL command "OR" " Location of the text file:", entering the name of my backup (forum.sql) in the field and pressing GO.

I get this message:

---------------------
I Your SQL query has been executed successfully:
The content of your file has been inserted. (forum.sql: 12904 Instructions)

No tables found in database.
---------------------

So, what's going on here? I don't get it. The uploaded is said "successful" but my new database is empty (no tables). Indeed, when I try any of the tab, it says "no table"....
Should I try another method for uploading my forum.sql backup file into my newly created DB?

Try the new option in OPS. If that doesn't work then speak to Powweb support and they should be able to insert the db dump into that empty development database you made. (You will need to upload the .sql file to your web space (FTP) so powweb support can access it.

Good luck!
