I have been using Nuke for a year and the site is very rich with content.
Now I want to move it to a new server that is faster and has more storage space.
I want to keep all the existing content.
I have the same version of NUKE (6.9) installed on the new server,
and I even set up the MySQL data base with the same name and password BUT I can't figue out how to upload my BACKUP to the new server?

Hi Jerry,
Depending on the size of your DB, you more than likely will need to import it in chunks (the sql file broken down into smaller files).
If you would like some help doing this, just send me a PM and I will be more than happy to help you out.

Hey Jerry,
Yeah, Viper raises a very good point re: the 30 sec timeout.
Take a look at this which is a link to a post that talks about sql files that are too large for phpmyadmin to handle in the hosted environment. People have problems when the sql file is greater than 2MB! The size varies by server configuration (you may be able to handle 5MB).
Sometimes, the comments in the SQL files cause errors (different commenting styles), so I suggest deleting them, after splitting your sql file in smaller (1MB) files...
