large Mysql Database

That's insanely small. Don't take this the wrong way but I'd consider a different hosting provider.

Are you sure it's 2Mb and not 2Gb?

 

Agree with tyr2, a 2 MB limit is insanely small.

If you have access to the unix command line on both ends (use Terminal on the Mac), you can use the 'split' and 'cat' utilities to split up the file. For example, before transferring, you would do:

Code:

split -b 2m file_name

This creates 2-MB files with names 'xaa', 'xab', 'xac', and so on. Transfer them to the host, and then on the host do:

Code:

cat x?? > file_name

Of course, if your host is really this limiting on upload sizes, I have a feeling that they don't give you access to the unix command line, and thus this method will not work.

 

Is this using their Control Panel? If so, do you have shell and FTP access to the server?

With reference o your thread title: 25MB is really quite a small amount of data, for comparison I regularly work with databases that are several hundred gigabytes in size.
