  Hi everyone ,

  My domain and hosting package expired 2 months ago.I didn’t extended it.I asked my company to backup my blog but they said i can’t.Instead of that , they gave me my mysql backup file.(.sql format)

  I don’t know anything about MySQL.I tried to install local wordpress blog , and i did.But i can’t import my mysql backup.It says :

  “#1100 – Table ‘pma_tracking’ was not locked with LOCK TABLES “

  I searched web for it but couldn’t find any solutions.I want to restore my posts and comments to my new local blog.

  What should I do , anyone ?
