Error on Copy database to in phpmyadmin

[Saitow]

Hello!!

I'm from Brazil, and have a poor English... sorry...
But I need your help... I have a website account on HostGator... to a Car Club... and I'm having issues trying to copy a database of phpBB on the phpmyadmin... I receive the error below:

Notice in ./libraries/operations.lib.php#361
Undefined variable: sql_query

Backtrace
./db_operations.php#69: PMA_createDbBeforeCopy()

I'm trying the HostGator support, but they are more lost than me, I think...
This happens in any database that I try to copy (Prestashop database, for ex.)
How can I solve this issue?

Below the information of phpmyadmin:

Servidor de base de dados (Database Server)

• Servidor: Localhost via UNIX socket
• Tipo de servidor: Percona Server
• Versão do servidor: 5.6.39-83.1 - Percona Server (GPL), Release 83.1, Revision da5a1c2923f

• Versão do cliente de base de dados: libmysql - 5.1.73

Tks in advance to any help!

Hi @Saitow

Can you tell me exactly what you're doing to produce this error? Furthermore, can you elaborate on the end goal, it sounds like you just need a copy of the db which would be best done through the backup wizard in cPanel.

Thanks!

Lauren, Ill try to explain:

Everytime I need to update/ upgrade our phpBB board, I do a copy of the database in case of any problem... a easy rollback to the start point...
In the atempt to upgrade to 3.2.2 version, I'm trying to do the same... the difference from now to previous times (never got any error) is the host site... I'm now on the HostGator... before, was a national host...

The way you proposed for make a backup in the cpanel, I know how to do... but don't know how to make this backup accessible on the SQL server... like the original...
The host support told to do an export /import process... but the db have 910MB... 13th years of board...

I'm really curious why this has been so difficult on this host server... I've made this process so many times on the old host server... using the same process...

Hi @Saitow


To confirm you're going to PHPMyAdmin -> Operations -> Copy Database to and then basically creating a backup of the database right there correct?

If this is what you're doing I've tried to replicate an issue here and I'm not experiencing an issue and I can't help but wonder if this is not something specific to your host's environment. They are running percona which may affect the way this functions (though I'm not sure in this instance)

Unfortunately, the only way to tell what's actually happening would be to access the logs - cPanel error logs and MySQL error logs on the server - This means that the provider would need to resolve the issue if you don't have root access.
