I have a .sql file with an export from phpMyAdmin. I want to import it into a different server using the command line.
I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 installation. I placed the .sql file on the C drive, and I tried this command
database_name < file.sql
It is not working. I get syntax errors.
Try:
mysql -u username -p database_name < file.sql
Check MySQL Options.
Note-1: It is better to use the full path of the SQL file file.sql.
Note-2: Use -R and --triggers to keep the routines and triggers of original database. They are not copied by default.
Note-3 You may have to create the (empty) database from mysql if it doesn't exist already and the exported SQL don't contain CREATE DATABASE (exported with --no-create-db or -n option), before you can import it.
