Problem Description
I have a `.sql` file with an export from `phpMyAdmin`. I want to import it into a different server using the command line.
I have a [Windows Server 2008][1] R2 installation. I placed the `.sql` file on the ***C drive***, and I tried this command
```lang-none
database_name < file.sql
```
It is not working. I get syntax errors.
- How can I import this file without a problem?
- Do I need to create a database first?
