mySQL 1046 error when importing wordpress database
import, mysql, mysql-error-1046, wordpress
Solution
Like the two other answers say: I wasn't importing the backup file to a particular database. I had to create a new database and upload the file to that, and it worked fine.
Problem
I'm moving a locally developed wordpress site to a client's server so I'm trying to export the local database and import it to the server. I exported the .sql file according to the instructions here http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database but I keep getting this error when importing: ``` DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `wp_commentmeta` ; MySQL said: Documentation #1046 - No database selected ``` Any help very much appreciated. Thanks!
