MYSQL Import Not Working (Urgent)
As per vB.com and various other sites, I ran did the following:Apparently, the "transfer server" feature of WHM did not fully bring over my vB db.
Well, I used the instructions found on vB.com, but I'm getting an error message when I run the following command:
mysql uUSERNAME p DATABASENAME < /home/xxx/dump.sql
(I am using all the proper variables and inputs)
I get the following message:
