MyBB Community Forums

I contacted my old host, and he gave me my .sql, but it's got different db names, and I'm having trouble inputting it to my forum.

help is appreciated.

What I'm doing:

installing the forum, changing all the old db names in my .sql to the new DB name, trying to install it in phpmyadmin, and it says database already exists..

Maybe this will help:

Didn't help sorry.

Is there a create database query in the sql file?

Try changing the database info in your config.php file to your old database info

$config['hostname'] = ' ';
$config['username'] = ' ';
$config['password'] = ' ';
$config['database'] = ' ';
$config['table_prefix'] = 'mybb_';

does this work? :o
