[djtaverner]

Hello,

How do I import a mysql dump into phpmyadmin

This can be problematic if the dump is very large. I always prefer to do it via the command line.

I hope this is the same. I'm running phpMyAdmin 2.5.4

Select the database you want to import into. Select the SQL tab. You can run SQL statements from here but there should be a box below that one which says "Or Location of the textfile:" and a 'Browse' button next to it. Get the location of your sql dump text file into there and click on "Go". That should do it.
