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?

MySql Admin Schedule Backup
Mysql Admin 1.1.9 (server2k3) I would like to schedule a backup of my db with MySql Admin. The concept is fairly easy but I probably miss something since the schedule backup is not running... I've created a new backup project - named the project - Selected the db I've selected InnoDb Online Backup left everything default Last I've set a scedule backup every day at 23:00 with a target folder and file name Do I need to do something more ? The scedule task is not running at all, the only way I can backup my db is by running it manually.

Backup Options Non Functional - MySQL Admin
I have inherited a small MySQL database, version 5.x. I have installed MySQL Administrator. I would like to try the backup utilities offered in this application, but they are all greyed-out and non-functional. It doesn't matter whether the application is run on the local host or on a client workstation -- the backup features are non-functional.

Safe Backup/restore In MySQL
This is my 1st post on this forum and I am a complete newbie to MySQL. I have installed MySQL 5.0.67 on Win XP Pro. I am using MySQL with some web based application. Which has stored data in MySQL. I am looking for safe backup technique. 1: Cold backup: What folder/files needed to be copied for cold backup? And can I restore these folders on other machines with same OS and MySQL version? 2: dump exp/imp? How can I exp/imp MySQL database into my machine and on other machines. Finally: Which one is better: Cold Backup or imp/exp 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.

Restore A Backup
I have made a backup of my phpbb forum db. For some reason I can't get it restored. I'm running my own server on linux, the only thing is I'm new to this too. lol I was wondering if there's a way to transfer ther MySQL file and just have it merge itself into the MySQL system? I have access to the console if that helps. Sorry if I sound confusing.

Restore Backup Sql
If I backup the database using shell> mysqldump --all-databases > all_databases.sql How do I restore it? Mysql documentation only mentioned below: shell> mysql db_name < backup-file.sql This is only to restore one databas, not ALL databases I wanted. My guess would be shell> mysql < all_databases.sql Is that correct?

Quality Of Backup And Restore
I am using mysql administrator to perform scheduled daily backups of my employee database. What guarantee do I have after doing a restore that everything has restored correctly? My boss want wants a log of the number of employees in the database to be created at backup time (eg: 4388). Then after restore we should manually check that the number of employees in the database is the same (= 4388) to give us confidence that everything is back as it was. I believe this approach sounds terribly antiquated (back from the days of mainframes) but without something better what confidence do we have? In any case the backup is automated in mysql administor so how could I create this log of the number of employees at backup time? I don't see how I could. As a less important question my boss also wants scheduled backups at 12pm and 5pm daily but mysql administator only supports one per day I understand. Any ideas?

Backup/Restore To Web Host
I'm migrating a web site from my testing system on my local machine to the web host upon which it will live. My testing server is running MySQL v. 5.0.22, and the remote host is running 4.0.24. I am using MySQL Administrator v. 1.0.10 to run a backup and export my tables to an SQL file, and PHPMyAdmin to import the SQL file and run it on the server. At first, I was getting a 1065 - Query is Empty error. After reading through some of the postings here, I realized that some of the commented strings at the top of the file were unnecessary, and probably the cause of my error, so I removed them. I re-ran a backup that would only backup the appropriate tables and write the appropriate data (the database schema on my server is named differently, so I don't need to back up the full path). After editing the file to remove the uneeded stuff, I recieve a different error message, regarding an error in the SQL syntax of the dump file. The error in question occurs on a line that reads as follows: )ENGINE = MYIASM DEFAULT CHARSET = latin1; The error in question is as follows: #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 'DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1' at line 21 I'm having a hard time finding the issue, and would really appreciate if somebody might point me in the right direction to help me create a backup file that my server will interpret charitably and restore the data I need. I'm getting to the point where I may have to re-enter it all by hand, and that thought depresses me quite thoroughly.

Backup And Restore Greyed Out
I installed the MYSQL administrator, and created a new database with some tables. I want to create an sql dump of this DB now, but all functions in backup and restore are greyed out in the Administrator. This is quite a silly question and problem, but I don't see what the problem can be. (I logged in as root).

ERROR 1064 When Trying To Restore From Backup
Some time ago I installed MySQL on Debian Sarge ia64 and ended up with v. 4.1.11. I went on to build a database and a few days ago I wanted to copy it across to a web server, running Debian Sarge i386. I installed MySQL on the web server. As this was installed via FTP I was a bit pussled to see that I ended up with MySQL 4.0.24. Anyway, I thought no more about it, until I tried to copy across my MySQL 4.1.11 database. I backed up the original MySQL 4.1.11 database thus: # mysqldump -u root -p databasename > datavasename_bak.sql and encountered no problems. I also tried to restore it and everything seemed just fine. I then copied the backup file across to the web server and tried to restore it with the command: mysql -uroot -p databasename < databassename_bak.sql whish resulted in the following error message: ERROR 1064 at line 21: 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 'DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1' at line 27 Having searched various forums it seems that this is a common error, but I have not been able to find any advice as to how it may be fixed. Just to make sure that there was nothing wrong with by installation I deinstalled the MySQL 4.1.11 version and installed it again (via FTP), which gave me a real surprise, as I now ended up with version 4.0.24. It seems that the Debian team has decided to go back to v. 4.0.24. I don't know why; I can only guess that there might be problems with v. 4.1.11. So, I now have compatible databases (booth 4.0.24) on the development machine and the web server, but I am left with an empty database and a backup (4.1.11) that I cannot restore. Is there a solution to this problem?

Backup / Restore (swap Drives)
I have this one FreeBSD box (nice Dell with one 40GB HDD). I have made a replica of the drive and put it on the secondary IDE channel. I want to do a restore of all the MySQL db's to the second drive right after the backup takes place from the primary drive. The reasoning behind this is that this is the only system running this particular app and the company that wrote it went belly so, I NEED to have the ability to just swap drives bring it back up and be done.

Backup/Restore And Collation/encoding Question [Resolved]
i know nothing of Mysql and i have a problem which i think should be easy for you guys that know about Mysql so i would be obliged for your help. I have an online site which i try to install in my local php/mysql environment for testing e.t.c. The problem is that the onlione site is using greek and english characters. I use phpmyadmin for both backup and restores. When i backup the database the phpmyadmin of my hoster gives me various choices of the encoding to be used with default the en-iso-8859-1. When i try to restore it in my local environment i also have various option for the restore with default the utf-8 encoding. Unfortunatelly after the restore my site gets all greek characters subtituted with many ???????'s I tried exporting the database with utf-8 and restore it with the same encoding but the problem persists. So i guess i will have to backup with en-iso-8859-1 (which actually my site pages uses also) and restore it with the same encoding which doesnt exists in my local phpmyadmin (or is it there but i have to choose another encoding?). So what should i do? I tried to read the docs about collation and encoding but i understand so few.

Accidentally Deleted Root Account - Backup Available, How To Restore?
I managed to blindly delete the root account from the mysql user list through Webmin while on a cleanup spree. As you might be able to tell i'm completely stuck, no permissions to do anything, and I would really like to get access back. I have, by stroke of luck, a backup of all databases I made some time ago.. the problem is, without permissions, how do I get it back in there? Is there any way to do this without completely removing MySQL from my machine and reinstalling it? Server details: Mandriva Linux 10.2, MySQL 4.1.11, Apache 2, PHP4, etc. I've got a backup of the 'mysql' database that I believe holds the usernames/passwords?

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!

Special MySQL Admin
I’m looking for a solution to create a limited numbers of MySQL-Databases. In other words a front-end for users. The software AutoControPro (www.directphp.com) has this feature, but is very expensive to buy the soft only for the My-SQL feature. I should have the possibility to limit the Databases for every user and the user should have the possibility to create the appropriate numbers of Databases. Example: User1 can create 3 MySQL-Database User2 can create 5 MySQL-Database If the User installs phpMyadmin he should get only the assigned Databases.

MySQL 4.0.xx Admin And Usage
I've recently taken over my non-profit's Web site design, administration and maintenance with relatively little MySQL experience (although I have learned a great deal very quickly). My question is, does anyone know where I can get a manual or something like the current manual "Building your Own Website Using PHP and MySQL .."(ordered from sitepoint.com site). This manual is basing the MySQL on the most current version of 5. I'm looking for something similar that addresses the 4.0.xx(27 specifically) of MySQL
