1 posts since Sun, 18 Nov 12 		Hello everyone, I have recently compiled an updated (WoW) Trinitycore server, and im on the last step I need before I can run it, which for me, is setting up the database. Ive done what the wiki says, and I have ran the MYsql_start, in my database (I use HeidiSQL) I have 3 sections, auth, characters, and world. I did what it said and imported the auth_start and the character_start in the folders, so those parts are done, but now the last thing I need is the world DB. To import the full thing updated for 3.3.5a on Heidisql it freezes when I upload it in ( its 75 mb ). I believe its still running but the interface isn't working. Even if it's working, it would take 6-7 hours to import it. I need to have the server by today and I believe this is a ridiculous step you have to go through to compile a server. Does anyone know away around having to import the 75 mb file through HeidiSQL or, anyway to make it freeze less, anything, please help! thanks

There are various points you have to check, not directly related to HeidiSQL but rather caused by the default settings of MySQL - it's default import size is max. 8 MB or so (depending on version and settings).

Check both the timeout and max. import size settings, there should be a note on both in the Wiki you used. For example, I used phpMyAdmin instead of HeidiSQL and thus needed to alter the respective php.ini file to

"post_max_size = 100M"
"max_execution_time = 1800"
"max_input_time = 1800"

in addition to having to alter the "max_allowed_packet" in the my.ini (for MySQL) accordingly.

Sorry I can't be of more help but I only did this twice for other people and it has been a while, hence I can't remember everything ... getting old, I presume ;)
