Used Mysqldump To Dump Database But Its Not Accepting Password?
I am trying to dump the database but can't because sometimes I get error 2002 which is cannot connect to local MySQL server through socket 'tmp/mysql.sock' and sometimes I get error error 1045 which is access denied for user (Using password: YES).
Isn't the password the same as the password to access mysql or is to the password to access the shell a/c. The username and password should be that of the shell account or the mysql account?

Mysqldump Never Dump
I am trying to dump an existing database data to a new database. I did the mysqldump: mysqldump -u root -p db2 < db1_backup.sql I did that, and when I go to mysql prompt to show tables, then select * from table1, I got no result. I am clueless what I did wrong.

Mysqldump Does Not Dump Single Table Contents
I just started learning to use mysqldump, which I found very useful in dumping database contents in xml format. However I was unable to dump contents of a single table. I tried following command: mysqldump <database_name>.<table_name> --password --force --xml Intrestingly, I am able to dump contents of the entire database via this command: mysqldump <database_name> --password --force --xml

Mysqldump Won't Dump Create Table Statment
I'm using mysqldump to make a backup of 1 table called collection in my database like this - mysqldump -h localhost -u root -p database_name -t collection > collection.sql It works fine, backing up the data in the table, but it won't include a create table statement for the table. I've tried --create-options and --opt but can't find any other way of making it work.

Mysqldump W/o Password
I have to run this to dump the database mysqldump -u root -pPASS --opt database > database.tmp Is there anyway I can hide the PASS is a file ? I was trying to put it in /root/.my.cnf as this [client] password = PASS That seems to be not working. I am not sure if mysqldump even reads that file. The only option worked for me is putting the password in a file /root/.pass and chmod it to 000 and then run this mysqldump -u root -p`cat /root/.pass` --opt database > database.tmp However I don't like this option because it tells you where the password is residing. I need to put this in cron so I don't like the option of showing the filename.

Mysqldump :: Read Password -p From .cnf File?
I want to do a simple mysqldump of a database. I know I can set up a cronjob to point to a script that runs mysqldump -u username -pXXXXXXX db_name >mysql.backup however I'm not happy with putting the password in the script. I've seen some suggestions on the web that you can use '-p hidden' and that this somehow reads from a .cnf file? Am I worrying unecessarily here? I've looked through a number of books, but can't find a simple answer/ procedure to this.

Pre-empting The Password Prompt For Mysqldump
I would like to backup a mysql database automatically, say once a day. I understand that cron may be used to schedule such a task, but I first need to create a shell script which creates the database backup. (I am new to shell scripting, so please bare with me!) My first attempt was this: # # Creates a backup of the freelance database # mysqldump -h localhost -u root -p freelance > fldb_backup.sql; When I run the script from the command line, I am prompted for my password. This would be no good if the script was scheduled, so I tried altering the command to this form: mysqldump -h localhost -u root -p mypassword freelance > fldb_backup.sql; When run, it still prompts for my password when. How can I get around this problem?

Not Accepting More Than 17 Characters In Text Field
I have a form set up which collects details and then when submitted it creates a new record in a table called rbh_vacancies Most of the time it adds the records perfectly, but there seems to be a very low number of characters it will accept in each field- The following code updates the database- myRS.Open "rbh_vacancies", myConn, adOpenKeyset, adOpenStatic myRS.AddNew myRS("location_type") = Request.Form("location_type") myRS("job_type") = Request.Form("job_type") myRS("description") = Request.Form("description") myRS("salary") = Request.Form("salary") myRS("location") = Request.Form("location") myRS.Update myRS.Close Set myRS = Nothing "description" is a text area field, and will only be accepted if the field is no more than 17 characters long, I have tried setting the database to be text(255), varchar(255), medium text, long text, even tried BLOB. But I cannot get it to accept more than 17 characters! I can put more than 17 in if I update the record through a mySQL front end tool, but not via the browser, does anyone have any ideas!? Could it be something to do with the way I am creating the record set? - "myRS.Open "rbh_vacancies", myConn, adOpenKeyset, adOpenStatic" ?? I am also having similar problems with the other fields, but I guess if I can sort out the description field, I can sort out the others.

Accepting Values As NULL When Not In Another Table
Is it possible to perform a SELECT query on multiple tables and simply accept one of the values as NULL if not in another table rather than the whole query failing? For instance, if "rec_id" exists in "table_1" for certain but it is uncertain if it exists in "table_2", is it possible to return the query with a variable assignment stating whether "rec_id" was or wasn't found in "table_2"? I am hoping I can do this without a LEFT OUTER JOIN as the query is fairly complex and involves five different tables. Whenever results are fetched I simply need to know if rec_id is or isn't in table_2 if it is found in table_1. As there are frequently over 10,000 result rows returned it wouldn't be sound to put this into a seperate loop that queries with each rec_id to see if it is in table_2. I have tried "SELECT table_1.rec_id, table_2.rec_id FROM table_1, table_2 WHERE table_2.rec_id=table_1.rec_id OR table_2.rec_id IS NULL" but this returns no records.

Dump Database
I'm only interested in having a manually generated backup in the form of an SQL file containing a series of "DROP TABLE...CREATE TABLE...INSERT" statements, which I can reload if necessary. I can do this from within phpMyAdmin, but I'd really like to know how to do this myself from within my Apache/PHP-based website code on my home PC so that I can create the text file at the push of a button. I'm writing some PHP code to manage some date via a web interface. I can't seem to find in the docs exactly how to do this except from the server command line using mysqldump.

How To Dump The Database And Read It Back In?
Our database just slowed down radically. Certain queries drive CPU utilization through the roof.

After than, the database went back to normal performance. Does anyone know how to do this?

Mysqldump Without Locking Database
On my database I run a cron job every 12 hours to dump the database and store it on the hard drive using the below .sh file. The problem that I am having is that when it runs, it locks the database so my website quits responding. Is there another way to backup the database without locking it? We have a pretty large database which is locked for about 5 minutes which means we can not process orders during that 5 minutes. /usr/bin/mysqldump -u {databaseusername} --password='{databasepassword}' {databasename} > ~database-backups/db-backup_`date '+%F-%H%M%S'`.sql && cd ~database-backups/ && nice bzip2 *.sql

Backups Taken By Mysqldump Locks Database
i've made a backup / restore script which first dumps the content of the database with mysqldump and the copies the backup file to another location. What i find strange is that after mysqldump is finished with dumping the data and the copy operation is started, the database does not accept inserts or update. In our Java application (using hibernate) we are informed that tables are locked (even thoug they should not be). when the copy process is finished it works again!

Backup With Mysqldump Takes Hours, Database Is Not That Big
Hello, I've been having some problems making database backups. I've searched all around and I notice that to most people it only takes a few minutes to backup huge databases (1+ gb). My database is around 350mb and it can take up to 4-5 hours to backup, which I guess it not normal at all. My server has a dual Xenon with 4gb ram, using mysql 5.0.27-1.fc6 and php 5.1.6-3.6.fc6. I am using Fedora Core6 with Plesk. The database is around 350mb, with around 1.1 million rows. To backup I use mysqldump -uroot -p database > backup.sql As I said, the above takes hours. I guess it should take minutes?

MySQLdump :: Make A Copy Of The Database On Network Machine
I was using the mysqldump program to make a copy of the database on another networked machine. It worked. However I noticed that none of the procedures were there. If I use the --all-databases option does that copy the Procedures & Functions ? But does that also copy all of the user tables too ? Meaning the users on this machine have been transplanted to the other ? I was trying to test this, but kept getting the GPF on Windows for MYSQLDUMP and MYSQLQUERYBROWSER seemed to stop working. No biggie, it's just testing. I'm just wondering if --all-databases means a *complete duplication* on the other machine. It may explain why logins were suddenly not working a couple of days back.

Can I Set Database User Password When No Root Pw Is Set
I have installed PHPBB MediaWiki and SugarCRM on Ubuntu Server LAMP. I initially tried to set the root password on install and then could not log back in. After reinstall this is what I did for a new non root user. root@invest:~# mysql -V mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.38, for pc-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 5.2 grant CREATE,INSERT,DELETE,UPDATE,SELECT on pauldb.* to paul@localhost; set password for paul = password('mysecretpassword'); flush privileges; exit; Then when i go to login with this user I can't. I have not set a password for root because the same thing happened when I tried to set root pw immediately after install of the database. This time I am trying to work out the access issue with a new user i have created. This way I still have access since and I won't have to reinstall the db.
