@Joum I exported it with the sqlite Database Browser in .sql format then I made a simple import with phpmyadmin and it show me this error: #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 'TRANSACTION' at line 1 – sanaEsprit Sep 05 '13 at 08:14

Then you should read the comment from @DennisMeissner. As far as I understand, SQLite and MySQL don't use the same syntax, and as such, the way each would handle the same `.sql` file isn't consistent. – Joum Sep 05 '13 at 08:16

You only need to be able to execute PHP. The whole project consists of 3 files, where one is a README, one is a config file and the other one is the real program.
