Hello,

We currently run Joomla 5.23 with Hikashop Business.

Is there a way i can build a new website (from scratch)with Joomla 1.7.3 (on a subdomain) and keep my current database from Hikashop with the products, clients, sales etc?

Tnx in advance!

That's because your user does not have the right to create views in the database. You should skip the export of the tables finishing by _view in order to avoid the problem.

The second error is probably just because you imported the file twice. When you export the SQL file, you should tick the "ignore" option to avoid that problem.
