Re: [PHP-DB] mysqldump
I wonder if you need to specify the full pathname for mysqldump - when
it's being executed by a script it may not know where mysqldump is,
whereas if you execute it yourself your PATH tells it where to go,
which might be why it works under that circumstance. HTH, David.

console it produces the file fine. I have read a few other posts out

about this same thing which resulted in the location the file was being
saved. But I have gone through my server and found nothing. Does
anyone
have any suggestions for regarding this.

Re: [PHP-DB] mysqldump
also ... I notice you have a space after the -u - should that be
there? David.

Re: [PHP-DB] Book recommendation for using MySQL w. PHP
I'd recommend Welling and Thomson PHP and MySQL Web Development. It's
nice and thick and a new (3rd) edition has just come out.

hi gang
Any recommendations for a book that goes into depth with the SQL
language and specifically MySQL's variant, and especially using that
with PHP
I don't need a beginner's guide, cuz I've gotten far beyond that on my
own, but I need some help at figuring out the more complex
possibilities, and how to put them into practical use, with both the
PHP commands and the SQL language itself.
I'm primarily using MySQL, and want to learn that properly, before I
start moving on to PostGres and the others...
Any recommendation would be beneficial, thanks alot in advanced :).
Christmas is coming up, and my girl wants to know what to give me ...
heh :P

Re: [PHP-DB] backing up database with mysqldump
This is what I do (assuming your user is 'root'): /path-to-/mysqldump -uroot -pYOURPASSWORD --opt --all-databases backup.sql Alternatively you can pipe it into another database like so: /path-to-/mysqldump -uroot -pYOURPASSWORD --opt --all-databases | /path-to-/mysql -hIPADDRESS -uroot -pYOURPASSWORD Cheers, David Orlovich On 26/10/2004, at 7:53 AM, Perry, Matthew (Fire Marshal's Office) wrote: How do I provide a password?

Re: [PHP-DB] HTML question
I think you're just missing some double quotes (which you have to
escape). How about something like this:
echo tda href=\mailto:;, $row['Email'], \, $row['Email'],
/a/td;
Cheers, David.

Re: [PHP-DB] How to take Backup ?
Hi Rinku To dump (backup), I do the following: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqldump -uroot -pyourpassword --opt --all-databases ~/backup.sql To restore, I do this: cat ~/backup.sql | /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -uroot -pyourpassword If you've dumped your databases in order to install a new version of MySQL, then your restore command won't need to include the -p flag, as the root password won't be set. Once you've restored the backup, go into MySQL and enter: flush privileges; at the prompt to reinstall your root password etc. Hope that helps. Cheers, DavidO.
