Hi Brain, I have to believe that this task shapes to be more administrative than technical.
There are number of ways to upload a file, but you need access to the MySQL server. Would it be possible for you to talk to your ISP to allow some type of remote access to MySQL server? You could explain to them your problem loading a huge file into the database. Maybe they are willing to grant you a temporarily access to their server Regards, Mikhail Berman -----Original Message----- From: Brian Dunning [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 13, 2005 10:36 AM To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: Re: How to load a remote db with lots of data?

My ISP has separate machines for the database servers and the web servers - I can do a lot with my web server, but I don't have remote access to the MySQL server. I can telnet into the web server, and from there I may be able to access the MySQL server - but frankly when you mention telnet or shell I'm already in over my head. :( -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
