phpmyadmin “no data received to import” error, how

问题:

I am using XAMPP on a pc atwork to host a database. I exported a backup ("bintra.sql") using phpmybackuppro. I use xampp on a mac at home, and when I try to import the sql file located on my desktop, I get this error.

No data was received to import. Either no file name was submitted, or the file size exceeded the maximum size permitted by your PHP configuration. See FAQ 1.16.

Now, the file size of bintra.sql is 922kb. The max size allowed indicated on the phpmyadmin screen is 3,072KiB, so I don't think it is the size that is preventing the import.

I'm using phpmyadmin v2.11.7

Does anyone have any ideas why no data is being received to import?

These are my upload settings from php.ini

;Whether to allow HTTP file uploads.
file_uploads = On
;Temporary directory for HTTP uploaded files (will use system default if not specified). 
//upload_tmp_dir =
;Maximum allowed size for uploaded
files. 

upload_max_filesize = 3M
;Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 8M

EDIT:

Tried using Mamp instead. Works fine with the same sql file. I don't know why.

I had the same problem on Windows. Turns out it was caused by the temporary directory PHP uses for uploads. By default this is C:\Windows\Temp, which is not writable for PHP.

In php.ini, add:

upload_tmp_dir = C:\inetpub\temp

Make sure to remove any other upload_tmp_dir settings. Set permissions on C:\inetpub\temp so IUSR and IIS_IUSRS have write permission. Restart the web server and you should be fine.

I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THIS WORKED FOR ME :

Try these different settings in C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache2.2.8\bin\php.ini

Find:
post_max_size = 8M
upload_max_filesize = 2M
max_execution_time = 30
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 8M

Change to:
post_max_size = 750M
upload_max_filesize = 750M
max_execution_time = 5000
max_input_time = 5000
memory_limit = 1000M

Then restart your xampp or wamp to take effect

or stop then start only apache in xammp

Check permissions for you upload directory. You can find its path inside /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf file.

In my case (Ubuntu 14.04) it was:

php_admin_value upload_tmp_dir /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp

So I checked permissions for /var/lib/phpmyadmin/tmp and it turns out that the directory wasn't writable for my Apache user (which is by default www-data). It could be the case especially if you changed your apache user like I do.

Open your php.ini file use CNTRL+F to search for the following settings which may be the culprit:

• file_uploads
• upload_max_filesize
• post_max_size
• memory_limit
• max_input_time
• max_execution_time

Make sure to save a copy of the php.ini prior to making changes. You will want to adjust the settings to accommodate your file size, and increase input and/or execution time.

Remember to restart your services after making changes.

Warning! There may be some unforeseen drawbacks if you adjust these settings too liberally. I am not expert enough to know this for sure.

I never succeeded importing dumb files using phpmyadmin or phpMyBackupPro better is to go to console or command line ( whatever it's called in mac ) and do the following:

mysql -u username -p databasename

replace username with the username you use to connect to mysql, then it will ask you to enter the password for that username, and that's it

you can import any size of dumb using this method

If you are using xampp you can find php.ini file by going into xampp control panel and and clicking config button in front of Apache.

No data was received to import. Either no file name was submitted, or the file size exceeded the maximum size permitted by your PHP configuration. See FAQ 1.16.

These are my upload settings from php.ini

upload_tmp_dir = "D:\xampp\xampp\tmp"       ;//set these for temp file storing

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
; http://php.net/upload-max-filesize
upload_max_filesize = 10M    ;//change it according to max file upload size

I am sure your problem will be short out using this instructions.

 upload_tmp_dir = "D:\xampp\xampp\tmp"

Here you can set any directory that can hold temp file, I have installed in D: drive xampp so I set it "D:\xampp\xampp\tmp".

just copy your source DataBase(from your PC C:\xampp\mysql\data\"your data base"), then copy it to the destination folder in your MAC (/Application/Xampp/xamppfiles/var/mysql).

don't forget to set the permission of the new copied folder(your DataBase) in your MAC otherwise you can't see your tables!

to set the permission: -go to the folder of your DataBase(/Application/Xampp/xamppfiles/var/mysql/"your data base") -right click on it -select Get info -in the sharing&permissions you must add your user account(i.e. administrator or everyone) -choose its privilege to Read & Write -choose Apply to enclosed items

enjoy your Database ;)
