(mysqldump) CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS. . .
Hi All, Having a bit of mysqldump trouble again. I've looked over the documentation (again) and can't seem to find the flag to make 'mysqldump' out put CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS. Any ideas?

Re: (mysqldump) CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS. . .
I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not looking to drop anything. I only want it as a safety net in the event that the table doesn't already exist. I'm doing syncing of sorts, and I want the CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS so as not to throw errors in the event that the table already exists, and to add if it's the first time a particular DB is syncing, etc. I never want to drop.

mysqldump: get both USE db_name and single tables
Hi all, In yet another predicament. I'm wondering if there is any way to use the -B db_name option while at the same time specifying the table name(s) to be exported. The reason I ask is I am attempting to synchronize files from multiple databases from the dump files, and it would make things a great deal easier if I had the ability to output both USE db_name and still specify a subset of tables.

mysqldump: getting it to dump INSERT IGNORE
Hi All, I have read thehttp://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/ mysqldump.html and can find nothing regarding getting dump to INSERT IGNORE instead of simply INSERT INTO. Is there any way to get INSERT IGNORE to be dumped? Otherwise, I fear I may be forced to parse the dump file and do a few replacements.

mysqldump: INSERTS for each individual record.
When performing mysqldump is there any way to ensure that each record gets an INSERT of it's own? I keep getting the following: INSERT INTO 'mytable' (1,'test item'), (2,'test item'), (3,'test item'), (4,'test item'), (5,'test item'); but I'd rather have INSERT INTO 'mytable' (1,'test item'); INSERT INTO 'mytable' (2,'test item'); INSERT INTO 'mytable' (3,'test item'); INSERT INTO 'mytable' (4,'test item'); INSERT INTO 'mytable' (5,'test item'); because I'm doing my own line diff between files and it's much easier for me to have the items on individual lines. Any assistance would be appreciated. Regards, Michael -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
MYSQLDUMP not responding to the PORT option
Hi all, I'm trying to use mysqldump over SSH. I'm pretty familiar with port forwarding in and of itself, so I doubt that's the issue. No matter what port I forward (or to where for that matter), mysqldump still connects to the local MySQL server and dumps local data. It's as if it completely disregards my PORT option. Any ideas? My commands are as follows: %ssh -L 8080:localhost:3306 remote_server_ip %mysqldump -u user_name --port=8080 --compact --quick --all- databases dumpfile Depending on the user_name it either fails or dumps my local data. It doesn't even use --port Regards, Michael -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: SHOW commands.
Thanks for the responses everyone. Just a quick FYI, I am using Python as an intermediary to sync the DBs (I'm fine with using whatever as long as it's Debian compatible). I suppose I should have explained before, but I'm using the Python script to connect from a client machine to a server machine which is why I prefer a command to be able to 'sync' the data. Although I will have DB access on the server, there is no guarantee that I'll have actual disk write access. Hence, again, the need to be able to query for the command so as to write it to a text file on the client machine for use, etc. Sort of a hey, server, what would it take to make table BLAH if I wanted to recreate it completely? kind of thing. Thanks again!

Hi all, Is there a command similar to SHOW CREATE TABLE. . . that will output the commands to fully duplicate a table; data and all? I want to retrieve the command and write it to a text file. Basically what I need is a SHOW on CREATE TABLE copy SELECT * FROM original, but SHOW doesn't seem to work here. I need a copy of this command so that I can then replicate that table as often as desired in the future on whatever system is in place. I could obviously dump the entire db, but i only want this on a per table basis, as I deem necessary, whenever I deem it so. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I think there is an option of mysqldump that lets you dump just a single, specified table. Maybe that would do the trick for you? If not, and assuming you are running an appropriate version of MySQL, would a query on INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES get you what you want? I'm still on V4.0.x so I'm not completely clear on what is available in the INFORMATION_SCHEMA. If all else fails and you have a Java developer handy, you can write Java code to determine the composition of tables, even in MySQL 4.0.x; I know because I've done it.

Large Index's Fail
Okay, this may well be a LINUX issue I am having, so be kind before you flame. When I try to index a large file, it fails with a write error on the /tmp directory. Now my /tmp directory is on a smaller partition (as sent to me by dell). Can I configure MySQL to use a different area when creating indexes? If not, would I have to configure something in the OS to use a different partition as the temporary storage area. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?
