Hi,
I have upgraded to v.1.5.3 (test site on server) and am trying to get my database into the new v.1.5.3 using the add on Backup MySQL. I have used this tool successfully in my previous Zen Cart v.1.5.0.
This add on is successfully installed in my new v.1.5.3. I have taken my most recent backup file from today and placed it into my Admin->Backups folder in my v.1.5.3. When I go to use the tool in the Admin panel, I click on this file, press the Restore function and wait till it has finished. It gives me the message on the top of my screen in green, saying that the restore was successful but it has not actually placed any of the info into the database as I have no customer or order information in my Admin panel.
The old database name was zc15 and the new database name is zc_153. I have tried renaming the part of the saved database file to reflect the new database name in it...(i.e. old name was db_blue_zc15-20140804085615.sql.gz and I renamed it to db_blue_zc_153-20140804085615.sql.gz before uploading it to my Admin->Backups folder and restoring it.) and have also tried restoring the file with the original name on it, but no luck. I have also tried unzipping the saved database and restoring it directly from my computer, but get a server timeout as the unzipped file is 201mb (36mb in .gzip format).
I know that I am doing something wrong, but cannot for the life of me figure out what it is. I would appreciate any help that someone could offer to put me on the right track.
Kind regards,
Jeff
