Default Re: OT: MySQL Databases
It is a copy of the physical database files. EDIT: I can get access to the directory to upload them to, so that is not a problem. Is it a bad idea to do it this way? Should I manually create all of the databases via Cpanel first, then upload the files? Never worked with the actual database files.

Is there some easy way to convert them to SQL statements, without trying to get a working MySQL and web server on my own machine? Or would it be better to try to get them as an exported SQL file from my previous web host?
