MySQL Import Text File Too Big?
Our production database in an exported textfil runs about 60 MB. Compressed that's about 9 MB. I'm trying to import the export into another machine running FC3 and mySQL 11.18, and it appears as though the file may be too big! When I try to do it via command line: mysql -u root --host=localhost printing < ./printing.txt It eventually errors out with a "syntax error on line X" and only about half the tables get imported, and MyPHPAdmin GUI interface says it has a 2MB file limit on importing. This concerns me. If something were to happen to our production database, how am I going to restore it? I tried to do a search on mysql.com, but that's a less than helpful site for support. A newsgroup search on the topic didn't come up with much, so maybe I'm just bad at using keywords.

Mysql Import CSV File Problem
I use this query in a PHP script to import a csv file $result = " LOAD DATA INFILE '$uploadlocation' INTO TABLE $table2 FIELDS TERMINATED BY '$seperator' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY ' ' "; It's been working fine for a long time until now alll of a sudden this error popped up: Can't get stat of '/home/xxxx/public_html/data/xxxx.csv' (Errcode: 13) The user has File_priv set to yes. I even tried importing with the mysql root account but that didn't work either. Using LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE gives : 1148: The used command is not allowed with this MySQL version, so that's not an option

Csv File(s) Exists Import Into MySQL
I am hoping to write a solution that imports any csv files that exist in a given directory into mySQL. I know how to write a SQL command to import a single file, but am wondering the best method to automate importing whenever a file shows up in a given directory (and even better move them to another directory post-import). Is there something like a trigger inside of mySQL that can help me do this? I can run a cron or the like to check for files, parse them, run the mySQL commands, move them, etc. but I am hoping for a much cleaner internal answer. Since it will eventually be hosted I may not have the capability to run scripts.

Import Tables From Another Non-Joomla Mysql File
Can someone tell me how I can import tables from another non-Joomla mysql file into Joomla? Basically it is just from one mySQL database into another. I use phpMyAdmin to import and export the entire file but I don't know how to do queries. What I am trying to do is import all the articles I have built up using ccTiddlyWiki into Joomla. The only table names of relevance from the source file are: id - title- body IN other words, just the bare essentials. The target files has a table called jos_content with columns: id - title - title_alias - introtext - fulltext in that order and others but are not important. I think it is fairly simple but I am not trained enough. I have 200 items so it would save an enormous amount of time! It seems easy but I don't know enough about queries to do it well. I'm hoping that I can import the articles and then just go through the list in Joomla adding subtitles and so on to conform to Joomla database essentials. There is another column called tags which I would be happy to have as well and I'm not bothered about start dates or anything else.

Import Data From .txt File Into MySQL Table
i have text files which are generated daily and stored in a folder on the C: drive. I was wondering what would the mySQL command be to import that data into a mySQL table. The text file does not have a header with the field names so would i have to make that table first with the desired columns?? Also, does the file have to be in the databse directory or can it be anywhere on the machine??

Import .sql File
I am working with mysql for the first time. I figured I would try to learn a little about it by creating a Cacti SNMP monitoring server. I have created a database in mysql called cacti. The root password is also cacti. I have been fighting with importing the included cacti.sql file for days. I have tried multiple syntaxes and get the same error everytime. Here is what I have done: mysql> mysql -u root -p cacti cacti < c:inetpubwwwrootcacticacti.sql; ERROR: Unknown command 'i'. Show warnings disabled. ERROR 1064 (42000): 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 'acti. sql' at line 1 I am sure this is a stupid mistake because everything I read makes it sound like importing .sql files is easy.

Import File With SQL Queries?
I have created a number of files that have ~1000-2000 SQL queries in them. I want to know if there is a way to import these files into the database through a script of some kind. At first I thought LOAD DATA INFILE, but that seems to be for a file that simply contains delimited data. I actually have INSERT SELECT WHERE etc... statements. I don't want a script that reads the file and sends the commands individually ... it takes far too long. I have been importing them manually through phpmyadmin but I want to automate the process.

Text File Import
I'm importing a large text file (8 million lines) into a mysql table via the heidisql front end. Each line has 42 fields (tab separated) so there's a lot of data to bring in. I tested the import with a truncated version of the text file (10,000 lines) and the import worked fine. It took about a minute (i think) to import. Now though, the full version (which is 800x as long) has been importing for nearly 48 hours. Heidisql seems to be still working - it hasn't frozen, it's busy. Is it normal for a file of this size to take so long to import?

full sequence should be: name, surname, telephone, postcode but the data I have in CSV is more like name1, surname1, postcode1 name2, surname2, telephone2 surname3, telephone3, postcode3 etc. so, in many rows the data pattern is incomplete. Is there any way to solve this during INSERT? best thing would be to make mysql able to insert an empty field where information is missing, and the relevant one where available..

Data Import From Text File
When I try to import a text file with new data for an existing table I get the error "1148 - the used command is not allowed with this MySQL version." I have tried with both PHPMyAdmin2.3 and with MySQLFront 2.5. Both these GUI programmes have an "import from text file" command which I have used successfully several times to add entries to this table before - running just this MySQL version. I have structured the data in the text file in just the same format as previously. Both these programmes are connecting to the database successfully now and will display the contents of the existing table data and strcutre of the database etc (despite an earlier connection problem which seems to have been solved spontaneously). But both now deliver exactly this error message (and therefore I assume it is MySQL and not the interface programmes which is doing it).I cannot see that I am doing anything different. I have MySQL 4.0.12 on Windows ME PC with a local Apache server and PHP.

How To Create A Table And Import A CSV File
Server version: 5.0.41-community-nt phpMyAdmin - 2.10.2 MySQL client version: 5.0.37 Windows XP Professional on home PC Linux shared hosting I am a total newbie to MySQL and have never created a table. I'm using oscommerce and have the stock database that came with it and it is up and running on both my home computer and on the live server although the shop is not selling anything yet as it has no products other than the basic oscommerce product list. I'm hoping to do all this on my home computer before uploading to the live server which I do know how to do using import. My supplier has sent me a load of CSV files with the headers as follows: actionidcategory_pathnamedescriptionshort_descriptionimagespricetax_applicabledelivery_chargespecial_offerorder_locationnumber_in_stockproduct_weightproduct_codedoes_it_have_optionsname_of_optionstype_of_optionsoption_itemsprice_difference_of_option_items*EOL* Total of 21 fields. I found this information on how to upload CSV files but have no idea what it all means although I did try and failed. To import an Excel file into MySQL, first export it as a CSV file. Remove the CSV headers from the generated CSV file along with empty data that Excel may have put at the end of the CSV file. You can then import it into a MySQL table by running: load data local infile 'uniq.csv' into table tblUniq fields terminated by ',' enclosed by '"' lines terminated by ' ' (uniqName, uniqCity, uniqComments) The fields here are the actual tblUniq table fields that the data needs to sit in. The enclosed by and lines terminated by are optional and can help if you have columns enclosed with double-quotes such as Excel exports, etc. I created a table called mynewtable with 21 fields but haven't got a clue what I should put in all the fields so it will not let me save it.
