@Starfall, as long as it is backing up your SQL database, it is essentially the same thing. When you backup from your cPanel, you just get more control over the backup operation.

Hi, I’ve found another solution that works too:

1. In phpMyAdmin select your database first – you can see listing of all tables
2. Click the Export tab and there select all tables to export, and export as usual

Exported file then doesn’t contain any ‘create database’ queries, so you don’t need to remove these lines.

@Sourabh, If you do not have ‘root’ access to the server, ask your host to do this for you.
