Mysql Restore


I have been running a mysql backend to phpBB on my home Gentoo based linux server. I recently switched the mysql and phpBB to run on a dedicated web server on my home network. I was using mysql version 4.1.14 and then 4.1.14-r1 on my new web server. The problem is that the character set seems to have gotten corrupted during the backup and restore process. The forum is based in French and hence a lot of the special characters have gotten messed up. I have even tried copying the my.cfg file from the old server to the new one but with no effect.

Cannot Restore 3.23.58 Db To MySQL 4.0.22-debug
The other day my server running MySQL 3.23.58 got hacked into and we
are migrating to another one. I backed up my databases using two
methods a) Mysqldump and b) copy the DATA folder on my server.

Now, I am trying to restore these databases on my local machine
(running MySQL 4.0.22-debug and Apache 2.0 on IIS 6.0). I have tried
importing the SQL files (mysqldump) and copying the .frm, .myd and .myi
files into the existing DATA folder on my local machine.

In both cases, the database is created and I can see the table
structure. But when I click on most of the tables, I get the following
error:

#1016 - Can't open file: '<table_name>.InnoDB'. (errno: 1)

Cannot Restore Mysql Database
My host suddenly went out of business, and deleted all my files without a notice. The only thing I have now is a week old back up
Now everytime I'm with a new host, and created a new database, to restore the old one over it, but everytime I try to restore, using ssh, I get that dreadful error message:
" ERROR 1062 at line 238892: Duplicate entry '189864' for key 1"

Mysql Backup And Restore For 4.1.x
I have mysql 4.1.11 on my current server, i need my database restore another
server.. (another server mysql version is 4.1.11 same.)

And now... I just created new my database to new server following command:

CREATE DATABASE dbname DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin5 COLLATE
latin5_turkish_ci;

because our database and tables uses latin5 and turkish_ci collation.

How can i get correct backup and restore for this character sets? example;

mysqldump -uUSER -pDBNAME > /path/backup.sql

and restore;

mysql -uUSER -pDBNAME < /path/backup.sql

is this correct for me?

OR

mysqldump --default-character-set=latin5 -uUSER -pDBNAME > /path/backup.sql

and restore;

mysql --default-character-set=latin5 -uUSER -pDBNAME < /path/backup.sql

some peoples suggest me --default-character-set= variable for mysql 4.1.x
backups and restore, is this correct? also if we backup database
--default-character-set option, restore command is same option will need to
use?

Database Restore / MySQL 4.1 -- InnoDB
I have got a MySQL 4.1 that we use wit vBulletin.... We had a crash
last week and I've been able to restore the data up to September 2005
as it stands.

Now, I'm under the impression I could rebuild the data from the logs
but I cannot seem to figure out how to do that based on the tools and
instructions posted.

I've got my ib_log files (ib_log0 and ib_log1) also my ibdata file,
which is full of all the data i'm trying to get restored. Opening it up
in hex editor, I can see posts and information right up to the moment
the database crashed.

What steps should I take to restore the data from the log/data files?

I've tried several different steps, but I'm goofing it up somewhere I
guess. Are there some other tools available to help with this?

This site was a 'non-revenue' site, so I didn't exactly make all of the
redundancy arrangements that I would normally do for an Oracle/MSSQL or
any other live business database. I'm ateast going to enable mirroring
this time around and move the backups to another location.

The new version has new schema (e.g emp_desc has been added in the new EMPLOYEE table).
Wondering if their is a good way for me to do restoration. Is their any mysql tool that does this automatically or I have to programatically find out of a schema change.

Restore From Backup With MySQL Admin
I am trying to restore a mysqldump txt file to another cpu using MySQL Admin. I receive an error:

The selected file was generated by mysqldump and cannot be restored by this application.

I understand there are other ways of transfering a database to MySQL on a different cpu.
ie. mysql -u Username -p DBname < Filename.sql

When I try this it doesn't work I'm doing something wrong. Does the "filename" need to be an exact path to the file or just the file name ie. C:folderfolderdatabase.sql

Also does it matter if the file is .txt or .sql?
Does it matter where I have the database.sql file on my computer?
Do I need to have a new empty database created?

Can You Retrieve/restore A MySQL User Password ?
Subject: Can you retrieve/restore a MySQL user Password?

I'm working on my own, local WXP, MySQL, version: 3.23.38-nt and I have the "root" password, and normally use the root account.

I have forgotten one of the Passwords for a user account which I have set up. Is there any way to UnEncrypt the users password, so I can use that account again? Any handy function that the "root" account can use, to determine a user's password?

OR

Should I delete the account and start from scratch?

OR

Should I re-apply GRANT statements so as to reset user/pass info?

Slow Restore
Mysql 4.1.15 on Win2k. Using InnoDB.

Using the mysql administrator gui to create a backup, everything goes
fine, and restores quickly.

Using the command line:

mysqldump %dbname% --single-transaction > %dbname%.sql

creates a file about 15% smaller than the gui produces, and is
EXTREMELY slow to restore. I have tried adding locks, skip opt,
everything. What does the gui use for a command to create this dump?

Backup/Restore
Working on a single machine (win2k) needing to do backups. Trying Backup
Table with the following syntax:

BACKUP TABLE tbldealers TO 'c:mysqlackups'
BACKUP TABLE tbldealers TO /mysql/backups

I've tried with/without quotes, ticks, nothing except the path. I either
get error in syntax, or I do get 1 row in set, but there are no files in
that directory.
I've read the manual as extensively as I know to and can't find anything on
backup table syntax.
I'd prefer to stay away from mysqldump and mysqlhotcopy and control the
backups myself.

SQL Database Restore

When I try to use PHPmyAdmin to load this .SQL file and restore my database, I get an error message that says NO SQL QUERY.

The file stops executing and NO data is restored.

Is this because the file is too big ??
