Re: [SLUG] MySql question
OK, Samba to the rescue with the copy, but could not get the new database recognised by the mysql server, regardless of mysqladmin, refresh, flush, reload. However when I stop and start the server it works!

Hey Simon, Ahh, sorry the first bit was just the shell prompt.. :) from the /var/lib/mysql directory, run: scp -r oldserver:/var/lib/mysql/dbname ./ MySql just stores each database in it's own directory inside /var/lib/mysql, with a separate couple of files (index, data, etc) for each table, so you can just copy the directory across to another machine, and it works fine.. That's assuming you've got ssh access on both machines.. - otherwise you'll have to tar up the directory, ftp it across or something, and un-tar it on the other side.. Hope this helps :) Regards, Damien Gardner Jnr - Dip.EE StudIEAust [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.rendrag.net/ Ph: 0417 055 052 - Fax: 02 6255 8663 -- It's sick the way you people keep having sex without me Simon Bryan IT Manager OLMC Parramatta http://www.olmc.nsw.edu.au -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
[SLUG] MySql question
Hi, Can anyone point me at some resources that describe how to move an MySql database from one server to another? Simon Bryan IT Manager OLMC Parramatta http://www.olmc.nsw.edu.au -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug

I find that something like the following works well.. newserver:/var/lib/mysql# scp -r user@oldserver:/var/lib/mysql/dbname ./ .. .. .. newserver:/var/lib/mysql# chown -R mysql.mysql dbname - then you just have to add user/db access records to go with if needed, and do a 'mysqladmin reload'..
