 Hi Mark,

 To rephrase: If you run the command

   mysqldump -u uipcontent -p  test

 on the command line, what happens?


It'll probably say that the database "" does not exist. :-)

Don't put a space between -p and the password .


 Cheers!

  Do you see any output when you run mysqldump without redirecting
  stdout?

I'm not sure what you mean but the file gets created and when I open 
it - there is nothing in it.

Do I need the path to mysql at the beginning ? IE 
c:\apache\mysql\bin>mysqldump  ?

thanks

mysql dump not working

2003-01-17 Thread Mark Stringham
sql, query

I'm trying to utilize the mysqldump utility to backup my db on a WIN2k 
advanced server. I'm running a BAT file with the following syntax

c:\apache\mysql\bin>mysqldump -u uipcontent -p  test > 
c:\testdump.sql

the file testdump.sql gets created in the appropriate place but the 
file itself has nothing in it.

I'm obviously missing something.

Any help is appreciated

Mark
