Question
Where and how do i upload my database files?
I am unable to find the phpMyAdmin panel so as to upload my database files. I was hinted that i could import my files through the CLI with the command (below) after i have uploaded my sql file in the home directory.
mysql -u root -p $database
I have done so much and on entering the command, it displays a ‘Welcome to SQL monitor’. However, after that, i am neither able to upload my db files (if they aren’t already there). And if they are supposed to have been uploaded with that command, then I’m unable to see the tables and data. Also, my site isn’t working. So , how exactly do I upload my db files?
Could someone please help me out? Does it require me to install phpMyAdmin somewhere first? (I am using a Windows machine.) And if so, how?
