Hi there, I am a novice with mysql on the terminal side using shell.
Basically I need to back up a database and have it saved locally from my server. I have tried using phpmyadmin but it fails as I think the data is too large. I have tried the following: mysqldump -u admin -p --databases yabbse > yabbsebackup.sql It seemed to work, but where can I find the yabbsebackup.sql file? Not very experienced with backing up. Any help appreciated.
