Uploading a database to server

How do I upload to my local host database to a server uses direct admin. I tried to take a .gz file from my local host database and when uploading it to the server It said that it is not a backup database. So do I have to create the database tables and columns by my own self not by uploading it?

Solution

  • In Direct Admin Under MySQL management, Create a new MySQL database and user with sufficient privileges.

    Go to PHPmyAdmin, Select the database you just created and choose the import tab. Upload the gz file and hit Go! The localhost database tables are now in your server.
