SQL error? Coppermine still blank

[mel0]

I just moved to a new host and I got a backup of my SQL dump stuff luckily tonight after reading I needed it, I had already backed up my old Coppermine files so those were already uploaded.
So, I went to "restore the mySQL table by running the queries of the dump files you created in step 2"   as instructed, and it gives me this error:


Error

MySQL said: Documentation
#1050 - Table 'cpg145_albums' already exists


And my Coppermine gallery just seems to be blank, http://melodyjustine.com/cm/
Doesnt seem like the dump worked...
Any help would be appreciated. I've been searching/reading for hours. Thanks.

If the table already exists you don't need to restore it. The dump you posted above is just the section that creates the empty table, not a dump that actually fills it with data. Is the dump you posted all you have? Then you don't have an actual dump, but only a structure.
There's only limited support for phpMyAdmin and database manipulation here.

The table wouldn't already exist because I just switched servers...?  I opened the .sql file in Notepad and it's VERY long, so I'm assuming it's the whole thing.. and what I posted above is what it shows me back as an error. Is it possible it is trying to load everything but doesn't because of the above error? 
I just want to get my old settings back without having to re-upload and configure everything again =[  Why is this so difficult to do? The instructions say to "restore the mySQL table by running the queries..."  is there some other way of doing this?
If there is "limited support" here, where should I go?  I doubt my host is going to know what to do about Coppermine.

Nevermind! I fixed it. Deleted all the tables and re-uploaded and everything works. PHEW!
