First how do I copy/restore my current data? do a man mysqldump there's a one-liner in there in the 'examples' section...

Re: [mythtv-users] Migrating mysql to another server
I did it from the get-go that way, but what you have noted above is probably enough to work for a migration. You'll also need to re-run mythsetup and plug in the new values that are in mysql.txt You may also run into permissions problems, but I'm going to assume troubleshooting those won't be too hard, and if in the end you have problems that you can't google, post here and I'm sure a mysql geek can GRANT you the proper syntax.

Re: [mythtv-users] Migrating mysql to another server
Oh, as for backing up/restoring: mysqldump mythconverg.sql -d mythconverg And then restoring on the new mysql machine: mysql mythconverg.sql -p Password: Check the man page for mysqldump to ensure my syntax is correct ;) Good Luck! ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
