Hi, I am quite new with MySQL and I have a question. How can I easily make a copy of a mysql database locally stored on a server where I have all admin rights etc. I did not find such a utility/command in the standard MySQL manual nor in admin utilities I use.
I use currently the mysqldump utility and then I send the SQL commands through mysql to the mysql-server, like mysql <xx.sql where xx.sql is the file that was created by the mysqldump command. This runs very slowly though. It used to run much quicker, I don't know whether it is an error or what ... In any case, is my method of database copying the best one? Thanks for any hint Ivo --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
