Hi, I'm planning to change web host soon, but I don't know which database I should import using phpMyAdmin. Let me explain.
I do a back-up of my files and database every month. I always do a back-up of database through Admin->Administrative Maintenance->Backup Database AND through phpMyAdmin. So, I end up with two sql files. I opened both and they seemed very "different" but of course I know they contain the same stuff.
My question sounds really stupid, but which one should I import on my future new server?
Thanks for answering!
I've never done the backup through the web interface, so I'd use the one I downloaded through PHPMyAdmin. Especially if you're going to use PHPMyAdmin to put it back up, then that makes the most sense to me.
They're probably the same; one might be in a different type of formatting is all. Either would probably work, but I don't know anything about the eFiction version, so I don't know if it's one of the allowed types for PHPMyAdmin. I assume it was built so that it is, though.
So... if it were me, I'd go with the one downloaded through PHPMyAdmin simply because that's what I'm more familiar with.
