Thanks Brogan!


And I guess I can still use this user account (ck2020) on the forums here since I found where I could add users that get access...


I assumed when I got to the import part of this that it would ask for an .sql file but in reading more I see you just need to give db connection info or it may even find a config file so no need to export or d/l my db. Dont know if it matters but something strange on that part. When trying to export through phpmyadmin I keep getting network errors around 4.4GB and then it fails. I downloaded a backup of the db directly through cpanel and its only 2.9GB, strange? Opening the db up the largest table in there is like 1.6GB which is vb_filedata. In researching more I guess we should have switched the attachments and files to the filesystem instead of keeping them in the db. Should I go through that process first of moving those files to the filesystem before importing into XF?


Also it mentions in installation to have an empty DB for the install. So do I need to go into phpmyadmin and create a new DB, name it something before running the /install?
