PhpMyAdmin export does not include PRIMARY KEY as mysqldump

Question

Export of the struture of the same table with PhpMyAdmin:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test_apprentis` (
  `a_id` smallint         


        

Answer 1

Another thing to watch out for in this regard when using export and import is the limit on number of transactions when importing. There is no warning that the number has been exceeded and the excess have not been executed. This means that some tables might be present but not have had their Indexes and/or AUTO_INCREMENTS updated particularly when importing whole databases. Depending on the number of tables and their structure there could be three times that number of transactions required so it would pay to check and adjust the relevant parameter in the php.ini file.
