    bug Trying to upgrade, running into a problem with new database

    I'm following the instructions in the upgrade documentation and I've exported the old database into a file on my desktop and created a new database. But when I got into PHPMYADMIN and try to import it into the new one, it gives me this error:

    #1007 - Can't create database 'sover1_zc1'; database exists
    zc1 is my old database and my new one is called zcnew, so do I need to modify the old database dump to be able to import it? I don't really know what to do.

    Default Re: Trying to upgrade, running into a problem with new database

    When this backup was created the create DB entry was placed in the sql file.

    If this is not compressed you can open a copy of it in a plain text editor and remove that section.
