To restore a DB backup “manually” from the command-line, run the following 
commands from a non-root shell on the machine running MySQL:

echo drop\ database\ Rivendell\; | mysql -u -p
echo create\ database\ Rivendell\; | mysql -u -p
cat  | mysql -u -p Rivendell

Then get a root shell and restart the Rivendell service by doing:

service rivendell restart

N.B. — the above procedure will COMPLETELY REMOVE the previously loaded 
database.

Cheers!

[RDD] RDAdmin will not start

2021-07-17 Thread Jesse Jones
Version 2.19 on CentOS7
History

Something went wrong in restoring a copied database through RDAdmin - the
gui "flashed" and now the GUI for RDAdmin refuses to open - so I can't even
roll it back to a previous version.

When I invoked RDAdmin as root in the command line - I get multiple lines
of:
invalid SQL or failed DB connection[Table 'Rivendell.VERSION' doesn't exist
QMYSQL3: Unable to execute query]: select DB from VERSION

I am nonconversant with mySQL mechanics so I need neophyte instructions on
how to get this ON AIR machine back on line.  The CentOS is working - only
Rivendell is down.

So how do I get RDAdmin back on the job?
