Because I have been unable to effect a restore with Kickstart and JPI4 I have been going through the manaual restore procedure.
When I try to import the sql data using phpMyAdmin I get the following error message
"#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''jos_banner` ( `bid` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `cid` int(11) NOT NULL' at line 1"
I haven't even got past line 1 of the joomla.sql file. I know absolutely nothing about SQL syntax. The joomla .sql file has been edited for the akb_ to jos_ change only.
Any idea about what might be wrong with the file. The line referred to appears in the file as follows:
CREATE TABLE 'jos_banner` ( `bid` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `cid` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `type` varchar(30) NOT NULL default 'banner', `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `alias` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `imptotal` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `impmade` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `clicks` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `imageurl` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '', `clickurl` varchar(200) NOT NULL default '', `date` datetime default NULL, `showBanner` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `checked_out` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `checked_out_time` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', `editor` varchar(50) default NULL, `custombannercode` text, `catid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0', `description` text NOT NULL, `sticky` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0', `ordering` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `publish_up` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', `publish_down` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', `tags` text NOT NULL, `params` text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`bid`), KEY `viewbanner` (`showBanner`), KEY `idx_banner_catid` (`catid`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
Kind regards
