I am running mysql 4.0.13 on Apache 2.0.47 and PHP 4.3.2. I can log onto my Mysql and I can show databases, and create users and passwords. OS is Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
In trying to backup my database, I used the MySQL Second edition syntax and also used something somebody suggested in a previous email, unfortunately I got error code 1064 in both cases. I tried the following: Name of database in this case is candleplace and I got this syntax from MYSQL 2nd Edition. mysql> mysqldump --opt candleplace > /archive/mysql/candleplace.073103 What I got was: ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'mysqldump --opt candleplace > /archive/mysql/candleplace.073103' at line 1 I also tried backing up the following way after creating dbase directory in my D drive: mysql> mysqldump -u ola -p --opt --database --complte-insert --flush-logs > d:/dbase/candleplace.2003-7-31 Each time I tried any of the commands to run mysqldump, I never included the ; and I end up getting the -> and when I put in the ; then I get the error message. I have tried using mysqlhotcopy and I still got the same result. Is there something that I am doing wrong please point me in the right direction. Thank you all very much Ola A.
