I've checked the dump file I created with mysqldump on a database sfg, and it has statements like the following: DROP VIEW IF EXISTS `advAPI`; CREATE ALGORITHM=UNDEFINED VIEW `sfg`.`advAPI` AS select `sfg`.`advertiser`.`advertiserid` AS `advertiserid`,count(`sfg`.`cust`.`custid`) AS `api` from (`sfg`.`advertiser` left join `sfg`.`cust` on((`sfg`.`cust`.`advertiserid` = `sfg`.`advertiser`.`advertiserid`))) where (`sfg`.`cust`.`statusCurrent` in (20,21,22,23)) group by `sfg`.`advertiser`.`advertiserid`; Now if I want to import this dumpfile into another database sfgbackup, it won't work because the sql is referring to sfg database. I think this is the reason why I'm facing the problems (sorry for multiple threads). Can anyone confirm my suspicion and suggest a fix? I'm thinking manually changing all the entries. Is that the only way? Thanks for your help Murthy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Your problem has to do with a DB rename ...read on ... The easiest way to rename a database as far I know is 1) shutdown Mysql 2) Go to your data directory, 3) make a recursive copy (with permissions intact) of database "sfg", call it "sfgtemp" 4) rename the newly copied directory "sfgtemp" to "sfgbackup" 5) restart mysql 6) do some GRANT etc to make sure that the users have proper access to the new database sfgdump... 7) now you have a new database sfgdump !!!if thats not what you want then just repeat your dump and restore on sfgdump freshly instead of sfg.... Give this a try and see how it goes .... Kishore Jalleda http://kjalleda.googlepages.com/projects
