 * Howdy,
 * When trying to import the backup database, I get this error when uploading through
   PHPmyadmin:
 * > SQL query:
   > a :1699 : {i :0
   > MySQL said:
   > #1064 – You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds
   > to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘a:1699:{i:0’
   > at line 1
 * Thanks.
