    Hi All

    I'm trying to import my V3 db into a new V4 installation and I'm getting this message, I've double checked my Db credentials and all is correct,

    Check database settings - Unknown system variable 'NAMES' at /homepages/10/d158381268/htdocs/amember4/library/Am/App.php line 969(1193) in query: SET NAMES utf8​

    any help appreciated, thanks Darren

    Well it seems your hosting doesn't meet amember's requirements:
    PHP 5.2+
    MySQL 5.0+
    I believe you have MySQL 4 instead of MySQL 5. If so, please contact hosting support and ask to upgrade MySQL on the server.

    Hi Alex

    The Amember V3 installation uses a MySQL4 Database, the new installation uses MySQL 5.

    I think I can upgrade the V3 Db to MySQL 5, will the member v3 installation keep working if I upgrade it's Db?

    Thanks
    Darren
