Hi, I am trying to import a 3.2Gb sql dump file back into my sql server (4.1.12) and im coming across the following error:
mysql: Out of memory (Needed 178723240 bytes) mysql: Out of memory (Needed 178719144 bytes) That error comes up after about 30 minutes worth of import and I would guess about half way through the import. The file in question is a mysqldump -all-databases file from another server that im trying to import onto my desktop machine. I have tried to alter the my.cnf file a bit, and this is what it looks like: [client] #password = your_password port = 3306 socket = /tmp/mysql.sock [mysqld] port = 3306 socket = /tmp/mysql.sock skip-locking key_buffer = 64M max_allowed_packet = 8M table_cache = 512 sort_buffer_size = 8M net_buffer_length = 8M myisam_sort_buffer_size = 45M set-variable=max_connections=300 # Replication Master Server (default) # binary logging is required for replication #log-bin # required unique id between 1 and 2^32 - 1 # defaults to 1 if master-host is not set # but will not function as a master if omitted server-id = 1 #bdb_cache_size = 4M #bdb_max_lock = 10000 # Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables #innodb_data_home_dir = /var/db/mysql/ #innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend #innodb_log_group_home_dir = /var/db/mysql/ #innodb_log_arch_dir = /var/db/mysql/ # You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 % # of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high #innodb_buffer_pool_size = 16M #innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 2M # Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size #innodb_log_file_size = 5M #innodb_log_buffer_size = 8M #innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1 #innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 50 [mysqldump] quick max_allowed_packet = 16M [mysql] no-auto-rehash # Remove the next comment character if you are not familiar with SQL #safe-updates [isamchk] key_buffer = 10M sort_buffer_size = 20M read_buffer = 2M write_buffer = 2M [myisamchk] key_buffer = 10M sort_buffer_size = 20M read_buffer = 2M write_buffer = 2M [mysqlhotcopy] interactive-timeout Does anyone have any advice as to what I could change to make it import, and not break half way through. The command im running to import is: mysql -n -f -p < alldb.sql Thanks in advance, Ian -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
