    Default Re: Import Database error

    Thanks for taking the time to reply!

    Should I delete the new 1.3.9h and put 1.3.7 on the new server?

    The datebase import stops dead at:
    DROPTABLEIFEXISTS`zen_address_book
    after about 20 seconds.

    This point is moot, if I'm deleting 1.3.9h.

    The prefix is zen on both DBs

    As I said before, it's best to have matching versions when switching servers.
    Do keep in mind that v1.3.7 is not compatible with PHP 5.3 or newer.

    I'm not surprised since DROPTABLEIFEXISTS is invalid syntax. If that's what's in your SQL backup file, you're in trouble.

    I have taken weekly DB backups. My old site is still live and I can take a backup anytime. Why would I have the zen_address_book. DROPTABLEIFEXISTS error? and how do I resolve it?

    I've never seen it written like that before.
    How exactly are you doing your DB backups?

    I do my backups using MyPHP Admin, with all the specified boxes ticked, as recommended in the Zen support tutorials.

    Can't I get anything right when it comes to Zencart?
