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?

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.

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.

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?

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?

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?

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.

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??)
