Re: Create table if not exists from mysqldump?
Hi, Do u mean when u take a dump you need to add before each table drop table if exists then here is the command. mysqldump -uusername -p -hhostname --add-drop-table databasename tablename test.sql regards, Praveen --- John Kelly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I am trying to use mysqldump to dump the structure of a single database and want the output to make create table commands that include the IF NOT EXISTS switch so that when the file is imported into an existing database it does not write over tables with the same name. Does anyone know if this is possible with mysqldump and if so what option achieves this?

You can run mysql with --force option when you restore tables from dump file. -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita This email is sponsored by Ensita.net http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ /Victoria Reznichenko / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.net ___/ www.mysql.com - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
