Hi,
 
  I am migrating my wordpress site from live to local host server.I exported the sql database frm live server's phpmyadmin . After tht i am trying to import into my local host phpmyadmin
 
i am getting this error(below)
 
 

SQL query:

--
-- Database: `information_schema`

- - CREATE DATABASE `information_schema` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

MySQL said: Documentation

#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '--CREATE DATABASE `information_schema` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_g' at line 4
