I'm trying to move a MySQL database out of my Win 2012 server & onto a shared hosting web server (Linux).

I'm having problems importing the database (which imports fine into other hosted packages that I have).

The company that Im having issues with have asked if I'm running on version 4 of MySQL.

I've checked & the current version of MySQL on the original server is 5.6.13. The destination server is 5.5.40 or 5.0.67 (not sure which is which from PHPMyAdmin interface.

Any ideas why I'd be experiencing errors & what command I need to include into the export command in MySQL to make the damn thing import into the other db?

Thanks

It is impossible to give an answer when you do not give us exact error(s) 5.0 is "a bit" old now and you probably don't want to use it if it is 5.5, then that is much better, but still there might be imcompatibilities from 5.6 - one way might be using 5.5 version of mysqldump, but I never tried that –  jkavalik May 21 at 5:49
    
first you need to tell us what error are you getting? second you need to tell us how are you exporting the data? MySQl dump? select into command? please provide more details. –  Masoud May 21 at 7:11
