Keith Driscoll on "Offline mysql database uploaded - redirected to 5 minute install screen"

You could use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/

Moving WordPress from XAMPP to the web really is not much different than any other WP move.

1. Do a dump of the db form phpMyAdmin on local copy.
2. create new blank db on server and import the MySQL dump.
3. copy WP files to server.
4. update wp-config.php to reflect changes such as db name, host, user, PW, etc.

It's good to understand the manual way to do a move but the plugin I mentioned is by far the easiest and quickest way when you need to get the job done :)
