DB transfer prob

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   First ive done a search for this,but not found any answers, so appols if ive missed it.

I have been using your forums now at www.mercilesscreations.net/forum for over 2 years with no problems.

But now Im moving host, so i requested a db backup, which i got, but it was as a .bak file.

I reinstalled your 7.9 at my new host, all went fine, np..

But when i go into the programme that the provider supplies for accesing the MSSQL, I can see the db he has created, and the files that 7.9 has uploaded to it. (nd, i cannot rename, or name the db the provider gives me)

So i can navigate to the CSV import wizard, then it goes to "Select the table into which you want to import data :"

So as I have one .bak, I dont have sep tables to install, and i cannot click multiple tables.

My intention is to be happy about transfering the old forum tothe new server, get it working, then upgrade to version 8.

Any help appreciated.
