Database Backup Format Strange

Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total)

  • Hi @lab41, are you saying your database backup has a .com extension? That would definitely be odd, as it should be .sql. Can you please confirm this?

    If you open up the file, do you see SQL statements?

    You should just be able to upload the file into phpMyAdmin, if you have uncompressed it.

    @cocreation – I’ve read up on it. I had it .tar.zip and unzipped it and it was a .com extension. I’ve now changed the compression to .zip which is easier to import.

    Thanks!

    Okay, glad to hear it’s working now. It may have been something odd with the program used to uncompress.
