mysql import on windows

Question

I have a MySQL file, db.sql. I have tried to import it using:

mysql -uroot -p[password] db < db.sql

All I get is a listing of m

Answer 1

This perfectly works

mysql>[your password]

Other wise, use the database to which you want to import the SQLDump file by command.

mysql>use [your database name]

And then give source the database Dump file path as blow command(If not works the copy Dump database file to the bin folder where the MySQL installed for eg. "C:/programfiles/mysql/mqlserver5.0/bin")

mysql> source [dataBasePath+name.sql or dataBaseName.sql]EG: source C:.....sql

I am using mysql server 5.5
