Hello,

Having a problem here. I'm trying to get a Mysql 3.23 database from a Red 
Hat 7 machine over to a Mysql 3.23 on a Solaris Sparcstation.

I was able to dump the database using the mysqldump command. The database 
has 3 tables, and I used the following syntax:

mysqldump -u <username> -p <database> table_name > backup.sql

I repeated this for all 3 tables, giving the each sql file a different 
name. From my understanding, I can call the backup file anything I want. 
This seemed to work because each sql file I made had data in it, so all 
seemed well.

I copied the files to the sparc server and did a mysqlimport. I tried:

mysqlimport -u <username> -p <database> table_name

I am told that it cannot find the ISM (I think that was the name) file. 
Well, nowhere for the mysqldump that I could find did it mention anything 
about this.

Clearly I am doing something wrong. I searched for hours yesterday and 
searched google for different was to use these commands, but couldn't find 
anything other than the documentation and the syntax used above.

Any suggestions? Am I using mysqldump and mysqlimport correctly? I am 
logged on as root on both machines when I do this, and I have the right 
username and password for the database.

Thanks!
Aaron
