Little problem with MySQL 3.23.46 under Windows ME. I'm trying to create a database from an .sql file (the dumped remains of a functioning database--also MySQL). The dumping was easy, but I'm having a problem putting it back. I have a dumped file called smarts.sql that starts this way: ---------
# MySQL dump 8.14 # # Host: localhost Database: smarts #-------------------------------------------------------- # Server version 3.23.38 # # Table structure for table 'about' # CREATE TABLE about ( id smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, lang char(2) default NULL, recordname varchar(40) default NULL, key1 tinytext, key2 tinytext, status varchar(10) default NULL, title tinytext, par1 tinytext, PRIMARY KEY (id) ) TYPE=MyISAM; # # Dumping data for table 'about' # INSERT INTO about VALUES (1,'en','about' -----------(and so on) This is what I'm doing to try to recreate the database locally: 1. I type "mysqladmin create smarts" OK--I see a new directory called "smarts" (no files in it) 2. I type "mysql smarts < smarts.sql" It pauses for a few seconds (seeming to input the file), then returns the DOS prompt with no message, error or otherwise. Seems to have worked, right? But when I check the 'smarts' database directory, there are no files in it. (Incidentally mysqld is running.) What am I doing wrong?? ...Rene --- René Fournier [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
