Migration: SQL import problems

Hi,

I’m trying to move a txp to a new server. I’ve made a dump of the database and when trying to import it to the new database (via Phpmyadmin) I get the follwing error:

  1. - BLOB/TEXT column ‘Body’ used in key specification without a key length

Has anyone come across this before? my knowledge of SQL isn’t great.

Re: Migration: SQL import problems

From which mysql-version did you export? Into which mysql-version are you trying to import?

O.k…

I contacted the host of the originating server and asked if they could make a dump for me as I don’t have shell access. This new dump imported fine so it was the crappy mysql interface they had in place that was causing the problem.

Problem solved.
