I have to ask, are you using the same version of MySQL? I think 10.1 came with v3 and 10.3 come with v4.0. You may need to setup 10.1.5 on an old machine to dump the database for importing. On Jun 23, 2005, at 4:53 PM, Alla-amin wrote: Hi everyone, I just subscribed to the list and some

You can't transfer database files directly between versions. The file format is different. You need to dump the data to a text file and import it. This isn't like FileMaker, Word or Excel where it will realize it's an older version and convert it. On Jun 24, 2005, at 9:42 AM, Alla-amin
