Restore Of Database
How do I go about restoring multiple databases at the same time. I know if I needed to restore 1 database I can do something like.
mysql db_name < backup-file.sql
but what if backup-file.sql consists of multiple databases (ie it was created using mysqldump-all-databases) , which database would I specify in the db_name section?

SQL Database Restore
I upgraded to Tiger and it damaged my SQL database. I have a backup file that is about 80 mb. The backup file was created with PHPmyAdmin and is in .SQL format. 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 ?? Is there an application that will break the .SQL file down into smaller parts ?? Is there a way to restore the data using the .SQL file and a direct SQL command line entry ??

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"
Get Trouble With Restore Database
I truly get trouble with my database. I transfer from a shared hosting to another one. Thus, I make a backup file called svduhoc.sql. My database is so large over 160MB. Of course we can not restore database by phpMyAdmin. Therefore, I use another way. Although I have tried many times, I couldnt restore. I even asked for the help from techincal support of my new shared hosting. However they told me that there could be a problem and recommended me to come over here to get your help. Both of us: technical support and me got the same error at line 11923. Whenever we restor, it quits at the same the line 11923. So what should I have to do now? I really get mad and stress because I couldn not lose this database. It is very important to me. If anyone can fix this problem and successfully restore my database, I will pay $50 bucks even though I am poor student now. Because it is very important then I need all your help. You guys can contact me here or pm or email "tony_hai@hotmail.com"
InnoDB Constraints And Database Restore
We use InnoDB tables and foreign key constraints extensively. The mysqldump backs up the database tables in alphabetical order with foreign key constraints defined in the create statement of each table. These foreign key constraints are violated at the time of restore. We have tried the following two solutions... (1) We have tried to backup the database tables in the order of their dependencies. This works but the backup scripts need to be maintained carefully as new tables are added/removed from the database. (2) phpMyAdmin export does the database dump and puts the table constraints as ALTER statements at the end of the dump. Unfortunately, the phpMyAdmin dumps cannot be automated and I have not been able to push constraints to the end of the backup using mysqldump.

Error 1044 On Database Restore
I'm trying to move a database from one machine to another. I dumped the database and successfully loaded it on one machine, but I can't do it on another machine. I have the database set up. I created the user to access the database, and gave all privs with grant option for that database. But when I go to run the command to restore the database, I get the following error: $ mysql -u user -p database < database.sql Enter password: ERROR 1044 at line 26: Access denied for user: 'user@localhost' to database 'database' I don't understand. Looking at the sql file, the line is: /*!40000 ALTER TABLE accidents DISABLE KEYS */; LOCK TABLES accidents WRITE; UNLOCK TABLES; /*!40000 ALTER TABLE accidents ENABLE KEYS */; Why can I do this on one machine but get an error on the other? The users are set up the same. Actually, using mysqlcc, I can't even get the user to have the lock tables priv, even though I'm root granting the priv, it just refuses to take. Yet, the machine it worked on seems to be set up the same way and I didn't have a problem. Can someone point me in the right direction to a solution?

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.

DB Restore
I appear to be getting the following error message everytime I want to restore this database.

A customer passed me her backup, for me to open in my MySql. They are 50Mb of backup. MySQLAdministrator is being long a lot, very even to make the restoration in my machine (1kbps!!!!)
Restore
I've got a table with over 400,000 records. I did a mysqldump to ensure I could restore it in case of problems. Sure enough, problems arose and I needed to do a restore. The mysqldump created the usual create database, create table and one gigantic insert statement, where all 400,000+ records are inserted. I started my restore around 10pm or so yesterday and was surprised to wake up this morning and find it still running. Considering the dump itself took a couple of seconds, why is the restore taking so long? I'm building a website that's going to have tons of traffic. A database restore that's going to take multiple hours seems to be unacceptable. One way to speed up the process would have been to simply copy the actual database files and just stick them back in the data directory.
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.
Stalled Restore
I Exported my MySQL database (60KB) (MySQL 4.0.24-standard) from iPowerweb hosting site. I know want to restore it to my MySQL (mysql-4.1.13a-win32.zip) on my home server. I loged on with MySQL Administrator, went to Restore, Opened .sql file, hit Start Restore, and it gets stuck at 9598 number of bytes each time I attempt it. Total is 60812 Bytes.

Backup / Restore
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
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.
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. Any help would be appreciated. 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 Databases
Trying to restore some mysql databases that were on a hard drive which has crashed. Although the DB's were supposed to be backed up ... it appears they were not backed up properly as I can access the drive but can only find the FRM files. There are no MYI or MYD files on the old drive. Is it still possible to restore my databases and tables with just the FRM files ??

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?

My guess would be shell> mysql < all_databases.sql Is that correct?

InnoDB Backup And Restore
I've just converted the tables in a big database (approx 27 million records) from MyISAM to InnoDB. When I was using MyISAM I backed up the database by stopping MySQL and then copying the MYI, MYD, frm files in the database directory, and restored the database in the same way. Is there a similar way to backup and restore InnoDB tables, or do I have to use the InnoDB Hot Backup tool?
Restore To New Data Base
I am using a heavily modded PHPBB forum and want to convert all my posts, users, etc, into a new PHPBB forum using some other mods. I am using MySQL 3.23.58 . I ran the conversion steps as the creator fo the modded forum stated but at the point where I run the install.php page I get an error that says "installation aborted as table xxxxxx already exists." Is there a way around this like perhaps makign the new tables over write the old tables? I need to keep the tables as they are or I will lose the posts and such.
Cannot Restore From Dump (phpMyadmin)
Using phpMyAdmin to export an entire database works fine - I get a mydatabase.sql file. Restoring (using phpMyAdmin) usually work fine. However, if any of the data in any of the fields contains the '#' character, it bombs out citing a syntax error. I have tried escaping the character with '' to no avail - still gives syntax errors. Seems strange that phpmyadmin dumps a file that will not restore...? I have tried this on several versions of phpMyAdmin and get the same result every time. Have searched for ages looking for a solution, anyone else experienced thia? solutions?
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?
