I did reinstall the DB and attempt the import two more times before I contacted you. Bugger! I did note, however, that the odd errors on the import page I referenced before ([https://d.pr/free/i/dWyMLf](https://d.pr/free/i/dWyMLf)) persisted even after reimporting the DB backup. * Thread Starter [ryanaduffy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryanaduffy/) * (@ryanaduffy) * [8 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/import-throws-php-error/#post-10377216) * One other note: I attempted the process on a local wordpress install (LAMP stack on macOS High Sierra) as well as the dev site (Ubuntu 14.04 server hosted at DigitalOcean) with identical outcomes. - This reply was modified 8 years ago by [ryanaduffy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryanaduffy/). * Thread Starter [ryanaduffy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryanaduffy/) * (@ryanaduffy) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/import-throws-php-error/#post-10419265) * Hi Nikola, any updates on this one?
