 * Hello @cscottiescotsman
 * Is it possible for you to share the Error that you are getting while importing
   the SQL file?
 * It can help to analyze the problem further.
 * Thanks.

 * thanks for your comment, but I have figured it out.
 * all I had to do was delete the full db as when I loaded the backup sql it was
   trying to over write the existing tables. so started with a blank table and loaded
   the sql into that and renamed it accordingly.
 * I have a problem now, when I do a search for a ‘movie’ with first letter used
   to work but now doesn’t. ??? says cant find any but they are all there.
 * help please
