...when try import .sql file downloaded website mysql, not display content. perhaps not link server , database properly. has encountered similar problem before?...

sorta remember wp likes hostname-based resolution, so, if import.sql file came domain.com , want import example.net, may see issue this.

how import done exactly?

code:

mysql -uroot -p <db> < /path/to/file.sql

check wp-config.php file on server mysql username/password/db , substitute -uroot indicated user/pass/db in wp-config.php

connect credentials using terminal >

code:

mysql -u<user> -p

,

code:

show databases;

if db not show up, have problem.

let know....
