Hey Guys,

I wanted to start by saying I just moved to a dedicated server from a VPS. I have 1 dedicated machine at SoftLayer & wanted to say WOAH... There servers and network is amazing. So keep up the great work guys...

Anyway I am using Plesk 8.2.1 on RHEL 5. I am having trouble importing .sql files into my domains... WebAdmin provides a shortcut to phpMyAdmin but it seems I dont have the correct priv to import a database.

So... is there a way to launch phpMyAdmin without using plesk so I can be a superuser or am I going about things the wrong way...

Below is exactly what I have done and the error it gives me:

I have exported a .sql file and I am importing this file into a DB on my new server. im using the DB WebAdmin tools that basically opens a restricted phpMyAdmin window.

When I import the .sql file into a DB using the WebAdmin phpMyAdmin I recieve the following error:

"MySQL said:
#1044 - Access denied for user 'snuck'@'%' to database 'phpbb'"

How can I be an admin user for this... I thought i was... I dont know how to open the full PHP my Admin... is it possible with an installation of Plesk?

I look forward to your responses...

To manage the database with phpmyadmin, its best suggested to install another instance of phpmyadmin in your server . This URl should help you

With regards to the error you are receving, please try adding the user to the database phpbb and make sure you are not trying to update the database from a phpmyadmin running in a remote machine

There is no way to access phpmyadmin outside of the plesk CP without installing a seperate instance of phpmyadmin.

Phpmyadmin is just a software that lets you use a gui to manage mysql databeses so it can be installed anywhere just needs to be given: IP address, username & password of the mysql server.
