Can not import database from online server (3 replies)

Ok,

so I created a dump with the php exec function from a certain database on our website. It turns out I can not import it using wamp. Using the import in phpmyadmin, it just keeps on loading saying 'waiting for localhost'.

When I restart Wamp server, the database is there, but the data is missing.

When I then try to delete the database, I can't. I need to delete 31/32 columns before the database can be dropped.

I am using Wamp server v3.2.0


However the same sql file can be imported on the web server and in Xampp without any problems.

Moreover, if I create an sql-file using phpmyadmin and export the same database from the remote server, I can import the file into Wamp.

The same script also works on another database from that server, so I am quite sure it has something to do with the database itself conflicting with wamp. The file is only 23kb so size is not the issue ...

I have compared settings of both databases, the one working and the one not and nothing seems to differ.

So does anyone have any idea how to pursue this issue further? Since I am not getting any errors, I have exhausted my ideas after spending several hours on stackoverflow etc ...
