There could be a few reasons why the database import is not working properly. Here are a few things you can try:
-
Check the file size of the database you are trying to import. If it is too large, it may be hitting a limit set by your hosting provider. You can try breaking the database into smaller chunks and importing them separately.
-
Make sure you are selecting the correct file format when importing the database. If the file is not in the correct format, it may not import properly.
-
Check the permissions on the file you are trying to import. Make sure it is readable by the server.
-
Try importing the database using the command line instead of phpMyAdmin. This can sometimes be more reliable.
Here is an example of how to import a database using the command line:
mysql -u username -p database_name < file.sql
Replace "username" with your MySQL username, "database_name" with the name of the database you want to import to, and "file.sql" with the name of the file you want to import.
If none of these solutions work, you may need to contact your hosting provider for further assistance.
