:) You don't CD to a file you CD to a directory

cd /path/to/domain/ip/home/folder/

Use that

You need to use the real path. What is the exact command you are typing?

[locja]

cd /path/to/66.216.96.223/home/rmaksumo/forumbackup-11-27-2002.sql

Steve Machol tell me if this will cause any errors.

I went in my webmin in to MySQL then created new database called vbulletin 1 then went to execute sql chose it from local files and clicked execute the database is working now.. with no errors that i can see but i wanted to double check maby this isnt the right way of doing it i have a 256MB sql file preety big let me know if this way of doing it causes errors.

Thx again for all your help! :cool:

And as bahbah said you don't put the file name (forumbackup-11-27-2002.sql) in the cd command. I suspect what you want is:

/home/rmaksumo/
