[JS] The command you wrote doesn't redirect the input of the client. It should read #mysql -username -pxxx dbname /home/me/testing/text.sql /home/me/testing/text.txt By the way, it is a bad idea to use test as a file or directory name. It is very easy to accidentally invoke the test command, which can really make you scratch your head.
