Where Does The Backup File Go?
I cannot find the msqldump backup file after issuing the command. When I do a google desktop search it does not show up. I've looked in the bin folder, the data folder, the mysql 5.0 server folder -- alas it is not their. Here is the command I issue >mysqldump -u root -p naasf > nasskbak.sql I then get the following >password: I enter the password, about 3 seconds pass, and then the dos prompt returns. I assume the dump file is being made, but I can't seem to find it. BTW, I did check the PATH variable and it is set the mysql server bin.

Mysqldump Backup To More Than One File
We currently use mysqldump to dump all our db's in quick mode to one file, backup.sql. This file has come quite large. mysqldump -Aq -u root > /MySQL/backup/backup.sql I would now like to split the mysqldump so that the output comprises of several files of less than 2 gigabytes each. Does anyone know the mysqldump options that could be used to do this? Or with using the > out command?
Batch File For Backup
Can I make complete Backup of a database (same as from MySQL Administrator) using batch file?

MySQL Administrator: Analyze Backup File Content Failed
I installed MySQL Administrator tried to restore from a sql dump file. No luck. When I run "Analyze Backup File Content" it says "The analyzation failed." I inherited this dump file and don't have much detail about it and can't really go back to the contractor who supplied it. Any pointers on how to get this table and data into my version of MySQL?
Invalid Use
I am having a problem with group. Following is my query but it gives an error of "Invalid use of group". SELECT refMember.MemberAcroName, refMember.MemberName, Count(DistrictLevelInformation.FormID) AS Spread FROM (refMember LEFT JOIN MainInformation ON refMember.MemberID = MainInformation.MemberID) LEFT JOIN DistrictLevelInformation ON MainInformation.ID = DistrictLevelInformation.FormID GROUP BY refMember.MemberAcroName, refMember.MemberName, MainInformation.qYear, MainInformation.Quarter ORDER BY MainInformation.qYear DESC , MainInformation.Quarter DESC , Count(DistrictLevelInformation.FormID) DESC
Invalid Use
I have tested my query on MySQL 5 and it works, sadly the server it is to be run on only has 3. I was just wondering what I need to update in the following query to get it working on 3 or if it is even possible to get it running on 3. Code: ..... and keyword IN ('keywords') group by people having count(*) >= 1 ORDER BY people ASC
Invalid Index
I try to used the MyPhpAdmin 2.8.2.4 with PHP 4.4.4, MySQL5.0.2.4 and Apcache2 and I got this error, 'invalid Index'
Invalid Use Of Group By
I have the following query: SELECT CLAIMPOLICYNUMBER AS Plan, PROVIDERSPECIALTY AS Specialty, TINNUM AS Tin, SUBTINSEQNUM AS SibTin, CHARGETYPECATEGORY AS ChargeCategory, SUM(BILLEDCHARGE) AS Billed, SUM(PAID) AS Paid, " + _ COUNT(DOCUMENTNUM) AS ChgCount FROM BAT WHERE CASENUM='0000911' AND CHARGETYPE <> 'DENTAL' AND CHARGETYPE <> 'VISION' AND CHARGETYPE <> 'ADMIN' AND PMTDATE >= '2005-06-01' AND PMTDATE <= '2005-06-30' GROUP BY CLAIMPOLICYNUMBER, PROVIDERSPECIALTY, TINNUM, SUBTINSEQNUM, CHARGETYPECATEGORY ORDER BY SUM(BILLEDCHARGE) It works great without the ORDER BY clause, but with it, I get the aforementioned error.
Directory Name Invalid
For testing purposes I have PHP installed and I have MySQL installed on my local laptop. Windows XP Pro I am just learning both of them. I have read quite a few chapters in the MySQL Manual. Enough to allow me to get around in MySQL and directly create tables an view information in them, upload .txt files into the tables, etc etc. I am receiving an error when I try to connect to MySQL via a PHP script. I have no problem connecting to MySQL via Command Line. The error I receive is "The directory name is invalid." Here is my code... I am not sure where to put the directory name or where to put the directory path in order to make it valid. I am not sure what directory it is talking about. <html> <head><title>Connect to MySQL</title></head> <body> <?php //connecting to the mysql server uses a mysql_connect command. $link = mysql_connect("locoalhost",$_POST['username'],$_POST['password']) or die("Connect Error: ", . mysql_error()); echo 'Successfully Connected. '; mysql_close($link); ?> </body> </html> Where exactly would I put the path to the directory or where would I name the directory?
Invalid Syntax
I am having trouble changing my password back to OLD_PASSWORD by the following : mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR -> 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd'); When I do it, it says 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 'OLD_PASSWORD ('newpwd')' at line 2
Backup MySQL Via Port 3306 (which Tool? Automatic Backup?)
i have quite a big database on my website - and i cannot get any backup via system dump or scripts anymore, because my hoster added some memory limits - and scripts/dump can't finish... so the only way left is to backup my database via connection to port 3306 and tools like mysqlfront. mysqlfront is unfortunately quite slow and buggy - so do you know any tools which can backup databases via external connection? - it would be great if there are tools which run automatically? (batch/commandline??) backup with mysql.exe - h -u .... is impossible, too!
Invalid Use Of Group Function
I have the following Sql Statement... I'd like to find the sum of hrs worked by an employee in the month, the required number of hrs, and the sum of the difference between the two, the worked hrs are calculated by subtracting the max vtranstime - min vtranstime and the required hrs are calculated by subtracting max to1 - max from1.... I tried to do the following: select sum(timediff(max(vTransTime),min(vTransTime))) as worked, sum(timediff(max(translog.to1),min(translog.from1))) as required, sum(timediff(sum(timediff(max(vTransTime),min(vTransTime))), sum(timediff(max(translog.to1),min(translog.from1))))) as overtime, empid,deptname, firstname,lastname from employee,translog,department where employee.emp_magnetic_num=translog.vId group by employee.empid I am getting the following error : Invalid use of group function
Invalid Use Of Group Function

Invalid Argument While Using BCP (Script)
This will be a 50/50 question. It's either something that the SQL experts can answer or a scripting forum. I'm new to SQL and just coming to grips with getting familiar with scripts. I've developed a small script for my workplace that will connect to a remote server and extract the specified table that I want, zip it up and then copy it back to my local machine. This works fine until it tries to run the bcp command. If I tivoli to the remote machine and type the bcp command in command prompt it works fine. However when executed from the script it throws an invalid argument and seems to refer to the "-" minus I place in front of the U (user) or P(pwd). The script echos the users table request to a file which is then copied to the remote server (SQLtable.cmd) and then PSEXEC is called to connect to the server and run the script. e.g. psexec \%Server% -u %user% -p %password% "C: empSQLtable.cmd" PSEXEC then returns the following error. C:WINNTSYSTEM32>Bcp FrontOff..SHIFT_TER_DATA out C: empdmpnlSHIFT_TER_DATA.dat ûUsa ûPpwd (chopped off the -n) Unknown argument '¹Usa' on command line. Sorry about all the data, just hope someone can help. Must be an easy way. The small script which psexec is executing contains two simple lines. Bcp FrontOff..SHIFT_TER_DATA out C: empdmpnlSHIFT_TER_DATA.dat -Usa -Ppwd -n wwzip -9 C: emp\%username%SQLtables.zip C: emp\%username%*.*
Invalid Characters With PHP And MySQL
I am writing about a situation that our client is currently experiencing with Linux Mandrake, Apache, MySQL and PHP. We successfully deployed a website running on this type of system for a period close to two years. It has a HTML GUI component that the client can type or paste content into and it serves-up dynamic pages in PHP from a MySQL database. Recently the web site was hacked by the Travel Bug virus and it forced the client to restore the web site and server software mentioned below. Original Install Mandrake 8, MySQL 3.23.32, PHP 4.0.06 and Apache 1.3.26-x.x Current Install Mandrake 9.0, MySQL 3.23.52-1, PHP 4.2.3-1.1 and Apache 1.3.26-6.1 The current install has lead to new problems. Content with double and single quotes are showing up as squares or question marks. For example, I have a page that is showing the square symbol in place of double quotes. If I do a view source on that specific page I can see the double quotes but if I telnet into the server and query the MySQL record belonging to that page the square or double quote character is nowhere to found. The following items are the steps we tried to understand why this is happening. First, we did the following to test the integrity of the MySQL backup file. We Restored the MySQL database on our test environment which has the original software specs mentioned above but on a window server running IIS not apache. I did a restore of the MySQL database file and did not get any invalid characters. Even though the environment isn’t completely identical to the clients we can make the assumption that the dump file wasn’t corrupted. Second, possibly content editors were copying and pasting from word into the HTML GUI component thus creating these invalid characters. In most cases yes but I personally noticed the invalid character issue with a page that doesn’t use the HTML GUI component. Third, Possibly the configuration especially the character set from the original version to the current version of MySQL is not configured correctly. We believe this to be the primary issue. The resolution is to configure or reinstall MySQL and restore from backup. Fourth, has anyone tried the PHP functions to convert the invalid characters. A request was to look into the iconv() function. The iconv library functions convert strings between various character sets encodings. This involves compiling the PHP interpreter which is why I haven’t tested it. Fifth, Can some other process running on the server be causing this? Altogether, we soon will begin creating a test server identical to the original settings and step through the install and try to recreate the invalid character issue. But, if anyone has experienced this invalid character issue or has more information that would benefit us your help would greatly be appreciated.
Invalid Use Of Group Function - Max(`mainid`)+1
I am trying to insert a incremented number into the menu table. I will have an autoincremented number as well as the mainid number. When I tested the code that is below, the above error happened. Can someone please tell me the correct way of doing this? I am getting really frustrated with this. Nothing wants to work for me. require "config.php"; $insert06 = "INSERT INTO `menu` (`mainid`) VALUES (max(`mainid`)+1)"; // error line if (mysql_query ($insert06)) { print "Mainid added."; $query2 = mysql_query("SELECT mainid FROM menu") or die ("Could not query because: ".mysql_error()); while($row2 = mysql_fetch_array($query2)) { echo $row2['mainid']." = Mainid"; } } else { print "<p>Could not add the entry because: <b>" . mysql_error() . "</b>. The query was $insert06.</p>"; } mysql_close();
Group By Returns Invalid Dates

Table Join Invalid Query
I have this table join below and I am getting an invalid query. How can I put the 15th line ($sql .= " group.id = master.id "; and the 17th line ($sql .= " where ".$currentrow_sql ; together. Is it even possible to do that?

Valid/Invalid Column Names
I'd like to present tabular data in HTML with the first row being the names of the columns in my database. However, I'd like them to be more presentable; for example 'I.P. Address' instead of 'ip_address'. I was wondering if a name like 'I.P. Address' could ever somehow be a valid column name or not.
Invalid MySQL-Link Resource
I'm getting the error message 'Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource' (applies to the 3rd line of code) when the code below executes: $delete_part_no_query = "DELETE FROM prices WHERE part_no == '$part_no_to_delete'"; $delete_part_no_result = mysql_query($delete_part_no_query); $num_delete_part_no_result = mysql_affected_rows($delete_part_no_result); The query works fine and I'm under the impression that 'mysql_affected_rows' should be used to return the number of rows affected by DELETE. However, I keep getting the above error message.
Invalid Distinct Recordset Returned On An Indexed Column
I have a table with about 1.2 million records. I have an index set on a column. For close to two years, this query has worked perfectly fine: SELECT DISTINCT `Mgmt_Area` as thevalue, `Mgmt_Area` as valueid from qcdata ORDER BY thevalue Note, this is a programmatically generated query based on some user selections. This query actually is used to create a listbox. The index has 62 separate values. This query would usually return: Code:
Warning: Mysql_data_seek(): Offset 0 Is Invalid For MySQL Result Index 2
I only posted this on the MySQL forums becouse i believed it had to do with the query. I get the following error: Warning: mysql_data_seek(): Offset 0 is invalid for MySQL result index 2 (or the query data is unbuffered) mysql_data_seek is used in a function (made not by me) which i know 500% that it works for other queries. The query in PHP is this:

Log-error File 'not Found' But This Same File Being Written To?!
I recently put up a message board and I get around 150+ hits a day so far. I've recently had some people sign up with my board but unfortunately, no one seems to be posting (they're just lurking around). I'm currently doing some promotions in the hope that others will post (like giving away a Lord of the Rings poster to all users who has 20 posts or more). Of course, my board has only been up for less than a month (3 weeks to be exact) so I know I need to be patient but I would appreciate any advice you can give me on how to turn lurkers into posters.
Backup
How do i make a backup of my database structure without the actual data in them. I have a couple yrs worth of data stored and would like to just back up the actual tables with no data... Can this be done from within the MySQL administrator program?
Backup
I have my DB hosted somewhere, but it's a hosting center that has no phone number. Nehow, if I have a MySQL DB with like 6 databases and many tables in each DB what would be the best way for me to back it up? If you have a hosted DB, and let's say you loose data, how do you regain it? Is backing up usually done manually, or is it done through software like backupExec or something? In the context of this being hosted. Yes i konw i need to change ISPs, but I want to know the process first. Also, if you ask ur ISP to do a rollback, is there a fee for this? A future ISP of ours charge 25$ for it.
Backup Db
I just started using MySQL yesterday, so I really am incompetent about most of it. Where is my db being stored and how do I back it up?
Best Way To Backup
Is there anyway to backup mysql without grinding the site to a halt while it runs? I've moved it to 3am but it can take a long time and if there are still visitors on the site then they cannot search while its running.
Backup
I'm trying to create a backup.bat file to do my backups. In my test .bat file I have: mysqldump -u root -p password database >backup.sql Obviously this command is failing because I am asked for my password each time I run the bat file, then is says it can't find table "password."
Backup DB
how or a program that can turn .frm, .myi, .myd files into .gz files or how to extract or make a importable file with all the info from them without mysql installed on windows? I deleted the program thinking i wouldnt need it anymore and now I need the information from the files but cant get mysql to work again.
Getting A Backup
we started using a doc management system that requires MySQL. Therefore I need to find out the quickest and less error prone way to create a backup of my MySQL databases. I found some nice resources on the net, but most already start telling me that method x works only for table types a and b, while method y is for table type c only. So first question would be how to find out which kind of table types I have in my database (as they were created by the application, not me).Any other hint on how to get a fool-proof backup (*cough... also easy to restore) would be very much appreciated. A small downtime of the databases (e.g. write lock) is not a problem, as our netapp can make a volume snapshot in matter of seconds.platform

Is this the correct command for restoring from the mysqldump backup?? Code: mysql -u <<username>> -p <<password>> <<database's name>> < backupfile.sql
Backup
I'm an Access user who's looking to have a RDBMS with a more robust back up system. We have a rather big project coming up and so far, we're planning to use Accesss. But I'm thinking about making the switch to MySQL. It will be in a multi-user environment (however, only a few users will be writing data). But many others will be reading. Overall, I'm rather inexperienced when it comes to backing up transaction logs. This is my question. Say a user accidentally deletes half of the records in a table. Then more records are added and many are updated. Then three weeks later, somebody realizes that half of the records have been deleted (the accidental deletion mentioned above). So is it possible to go back in the transaction log and find the delete 'transaction' in which the said records were deleted? Then is possible to 'undo' that deletion? What about all of the valid inserts and updates that were made after the accidental deletions. Will those be preserved? In other words, is it possible to undo individual tranactions/operations without affecting the transactions made after then?
Database Backup
Well i don't really know if this should be posted here, as i use mysql along with php but i believe it is more relevant to mysql forums. Is there any way of automatically backing up a db, say once a week? Kind of a programmed process lets say..
How To Resotre The Backup

How To Backup Database?
I have mysql and a single database. I'm moving from one host to another. I was instructed to "backup database from old host and restore in new"
Backup Question
by using mysqldump, is it possible to save all table in different file, so instead of having 1 big backup with table_a, table_b and table_c into a file called backup.sql, I would have table_a.sql, table_b.sql and table_c.sql ??? Also, on MySQL dev site, they said to use mysqlhotcopy instead of mysqldump if all table are MyISAM as it is faster. Did someone use this as it is the first time I see that?
MySQL Backup?
i mean. It is easy to restore a database I use that mysql_tool.php script. But what about backing them up? It is impossible to download a 200 MB database from phpmyadmin. Haven't anyone made a tool to backup the file to the server itself? That mysql_tool.php only have one problem, it doesn't work in newer MySQL versions. But it is a very cool tool. Try using it. I really need a tool to backup a database without thinking about size.. Download it here: http://hiveworkshop.com/mysql_tool.tar.gz
MySQL Backup
1. You can shutdown the server instance, and copy the Data folder to a backup location. 2. Use Mysqldump to to dump the Db into a text file, that can then be fed into a clean db, to restore the Database as it was. This method has the benefit that you don't need to shutdown the instance to run it.
Backup Woes
I am trying to backup a big database of my site (around 500-600mb), so directly dumping to a .sql file takes over an hour on my server and its just not the best way I tried using mysqldump --tab=/path/to/dir --opt db_name -uuser -p, but I got this: mysqldump: Got error: 1: Can't create/write to file '/home/httpd/xxx/httpdocs/folder/file.txt' (Err 13) when executing 'SELECT INTO OUTFILE' I read that its because mysql user has no write priviledges. I tried chown and gave the folder root ownership, and tried to use the mysqldump with u = root but I still got the error. What am I doing wrong here?
