• I’m moving my wordpress blog from one server to another, and I was following the instructions on the WordPress codex, but I came across this error message. Does anybody have any idea what’s wrong?

    There is a chance that you may have found a bug in the SQL parser. Please examine your query closely, and check that the quotes are correct and not mis-matched. Other possible failure causes may be that you are uploading a file with binary outside of a quoted text area. You can also try your query on the MySQL command line interface. The MySQL server error output below, if there is any, may also help you in diagnosing the problem. If you still have problems or if the parser fails where the command line interface succeeds, please reduce your SQL query input to the single query that causes problems, and submit a bug report with the data chunk in the CUT section below:

  • ???

    That’s the problem.
    Open the .sql file in Notepad and look at the start. You’ll see those three characters.
    Delete them. Save the File. Redo the import and all should be good.

    hmmm… I did a search for those three characters, and nothing came up in my .sql file.

    It’s in 3 times – look in the code you pasted above.

    i’m havin the same problem with the same ??? error.

    i did a search for the bad characters but none were to be found. anyone have any suggestions?

    when i look at the .sql file in notepad, the characters are not in the beginning of as it says they are in the error message. how can i get around this?
