Hi

I have been trying to export my database from mysqladmin with no success. I guess the problem is the fact that my database is 90 MB.

I know I can get a dmp file from ops. How do I import that file to mysql? I have a vendor who is redesigning my site and they need the database but when I sent them the dmp file they can not open it.

Help!

What app is the database for? Try with gzip on. And backing it up from within your app admin panel without images and gzip on. You can ask support to create and place a backup in you root directory, and likewise ask them to restore the database here. Other than that ask your vendor to split the backup into filesizes less than 8K or you can try a tool like Bigdump.
