• Hello,

    my website EnPlanTravesti.es was running on a free server provided by 000webhost. They cancelled my account due to apparent “overloading of the server”. The problem is that I had an older database backup but I can’t upload it to the new server using the Php Admin, as I get the following error:

    [ Moderated: Binary mess removed ]

    MySQL ha dicho: Documentación
    #1064 – You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘PK’ at line 1

    To upload it I followed these steps: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup

    For now I cannot access my old account on 000webhost because it was suspended so I will have to wait until they unsuspend it for me. I also have all the content (pages/entries/comments,etc) on there.

    Does anyone know what my error means?

  • – First, try contacting the hosting provider if the database server is online / if they have any other problem at their end, or they made any changes to your account, or if there are any limitations/restrictions, if the hosting package is set to Windows and not Linux, etc .

    – double check your wp-config.php file settings for the database name, database username and database password. This is where most errors occur.

    -Then check that you don’t need to change the database host from “localhost” to something else. You can get that info from your hosting provider.

    -Check you have actually created a database with the same database name as is in your wp-config.php file.
    -Last, but not least, if all that information is correct your database probably has a problem with it, and you may need to contact your hosting provider.

    Thank you.
    I followed some of your steps but I think in the end I will have to contact them as I don’t even know where to start. Thanks again.
