mysqldump and mysqlimport
I've been trying this for a few hours now and I'm not sure what's going on. mysqldump --host=localhost --user=root --password=mypass dbname dbname.dump This works fine, it creates a text file with CREATE TABLE blocks and INSERT statements for each table in the database. When I try to recreate this db on another server using mysqlimport: mysqlimport -u root -p dbname 'dbname.dump' I keep getting the error: Error: Table 'dbname.dbname' doesn't exist, when using table: dbname My question: Why is mysqlimport interpreting the dbname argument as a table name? From the documentation for mysql 4.8.8: mysqlimport is invoked like this: shell mysqlimport [options] database textfile1 [textfile2 ...] It's not doing that. It's taking the argument database and using it as the name of a table instead. I checked to make sure I didn't have any CREATE TABLE dbname statements to make sure it wasn't the dump file trying to do this, but it's not. The command line for some reason is trying to make a table called dbname.dbname. I assumed that the mysqlimport would just create the necessary tables using the dumpfile. Anyone have a similar problem? Peter. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Compling on RedHat 9
Cheers mate! It worked. When I googled for that error, I had removed the c:1790 part of the message (the link you provided has the exact same error message except it occurs on a different line) so the page didn't come up. I tried export CXX=gcc first because it was the easiest, and it didn't work on my system. However, after installing libstdc++devel and gcc-c++, it worked like a charm. Thanks again.

Quoting http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Compilation_problems.html: If you get a compilation error on Linux (e.g. SuSE Linux 8.1 or Red Hat Linux 7.3) similar to the following one: libmysql.c:1329: warning: passing arg 5 of `gethostbyname_r' from incompatible pointer type libmysql.c:1329: too few arguments to function `gethostbyname_r' libmysql.c:1329: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make[2]: *** [libmysql.lo] Error 1 By default, the configure script attempts to determine the correct number of arguments by using g++ the GNU C++ compiler. This test yields wrong results, if g++ is not installed. There are two ways to work around this problem: o Make sure that the GNU C++ g++ is installed. On some Linux distributions, the required package is called gpp, on others it is named gcc-c++. o Use gcc as your C++ compiler by setting the CXX environment variable to gcc: export CXX=gcc Please note that you need to run configure again afterwards.

Compling on RedHat 9
I couldn't find an appropriate mailing list for compiling MySQL, so I thought I'd try here. anyone successfully compile MySQL 4 on RedHat 9? I keep getting errors on libmysql.c during the make step. Google doesn't reveal a whole lot about compiling MySQL on RedHat which leaves me to believe most people use RPMs. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Compling on RedHat 9
OK, here are the last few lines from make. I configured using the following: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-mysqld-user=mysql errors: libmysql.c: In function `mysql_real_connect': libmysql.c:1790: warning: passing arg 5 of `gethostbyname_r' from incompatible pointer type libmysql.c:1790: too few arguments to function `gethostbyname_r' libmysql.c:1790: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make[2]: *** [libmysql.lo] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 I tried ./configure without the --with-mysqld-user flag. still the same errors. Coincidently, I spent the entire day trying to figure out why I couldn't compile qmail on my RedHat 9 box and found the answer. Apparently, do to changes in the new glibc, some older practices become incompatible with glibc and cause a compile error. With qmail, it was a simple fix, just find the 3 affected files and add the #include errno.h header for each file. Link if you're interested in also compiling qmail on RedHat 9 (I love qmail, sendmail sucks): http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.qmail.general/13960 I wonder if the new glibc is also at play here. I'm not educated on the art of compiling, I just know how to untar packages, configure, and make them. And, if I run into a problem, google's my only friend. In this case, I couldn't find much. I've got the binaries working ok for now but sometimes it's just the principle...I can't stand being beaten :) At 10:22 AM -0400 9/11/03, Peter Koutsoulias wrote: I couldn't find an appropriate mailing list for compiling MySQL, so I thought I'd try here. anyone successfully compile MySQL 4 on RedHat 9?
