I have xampp with phpbb2 installed on my xp pro . I have a backup of my old forum wich is about 850 mbs and contains more than 8600 posts from me = my lifes work and need to mount it . I know that xampp has a limit of 132 mbs but have been told by several phpbb experts that it is possible . I was told to change the php.ini file in two places wich i did to ---->
memory_limit = 2G
post_max_size = 1G
And i have been useing bigdump.php . The process starts but only goes up to 7% = 57.73 mbs and then it stops and i get a white screen . When i look at my phpbb2 the front page of my forum is there but if i click on a section there is nothing there . I watched the whole thing in the task manager and there is a task called HTPD.EXE wich takes up 99% of the power of the computer and uses up to 529 ks of memory and a second HTPD:EXE that uses non of the CPU power but 42 kbs of memory and then bigdump crashes . I have altered the bigdump.php file exactly how the makes says and the phpbb experts say .
When i try to do it with the comand line that they gave me ---->
C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql.exe -u root phpbb_ < "C:\xampp\htdocs\phpbb2\dump\phpbb_db_backup.sql"
i get this ---->
ERROR 1049 <42000>: unknown database ´phpbb_`
The config.php file contains this --->
config.php
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'phpbb2';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpasswd = '';
In bigdump.php ihave ---->
$linespersession = 3000;
$delaypersession = 300;
$db_connection_charset = 'utf8';
Please can someone help me . Thank you .
