 * Hi guys,
 * I’m running a 2.7 wordpress blog, and I’m attempting to restore my backup of 
   databases. I’m having problems. I’m in MySQL, and during the import, it returns
   with an error which says
 * Error in ZIP archive: 11
 * Is anybody familiar with this? And any ideas of how to correct it? Thanks in 
   advance.
 * Ryan

 * why are you importing a zip? unpack it before you import it.

 * Sorry guys, thanks for the info.
 * I’ve now got a secondary problem. One of the text files 25,000kb which is more
   than the maximum I can upload at once. I’ve read the support and it’s suggesting
   that I upgrade my version of phpmyadmin. Is there any other quick solution to
   get this file uploaded?
 * Thanks again.
