Hi Mike, I hope you are on linux machine, What are versions on old and new machines, is there any difference?.
just tar the data dir /var/lib/mysql (in most of the cases) and untar on the new machines by moving the existing mysql directory by this old data. I don't think this will fail, I have done this procedure many times for the same versions, but never tried with different versions. regards, Praveen --- Mike Hillyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello All; > > I am having a problem using the mysqldump > application.
