Backup SQL
Hi I have a query is i have taken backup from druapl due to timeout error in three backup files a-l.sql m-s.sql t-z.sql Now my understanding is if i do mysql -u kaushal -h example.com -p drupal /home/kaushal/drupal/new/a-l.sql and then do mysql -u kaushal -h example.com -p drupal /home/kaushal/drupal/new/m-s.sql will it overwrite a-l.sql command insertion in the database Please Let me know if you need more information on this Thanks and Regards Kaushal -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

If root, you can do ~kaushal/ to achieve the same effect. Next is which means run the next command only if the first command finishes successfully. To answer what I think was your original question, no, m-s.sql wouldn't interfere with a-l.sql's insertions because they run in sequence, first a-l, then m-s. The only time I'd really see this as an issue is if you were trying to run both at once, which in my opinion is a Bad Idea(tm). -- Chris White PHP Programmer/DBeer Interfuel -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

What if each .sql contains a DROP TABLE IF EXISTS statement at the start? Something to be carefull if its the program that generated the backup likes to add this tags. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?

I was just warning the OP that he should take a look at the SQL before running it, not taking your advice blindly: To answer what I think was your original question, no, m-s.sql wouldn't interfere with a-l.sql's insertions because they run in sequence, first a-l, then m-s. You're wrong, they may run in sequence and still, m-s can interfer in what a-l has done, it all depends on the program used to generate the sql and the defaults it put (create tables, drop tables if exist or a simple sequence of the sql generated in a-l). Think better before you hit send. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?
