there is problem in my mysql workbnech application , this is eror always show every i want to run sql script , anyone know about this ?
Use the free tool Opened Files View to discover which process is locking your temp files (antivirus, shell, and so on...).

I am getting an error while running a SQL script to load data. Error is pasted below:
Preparing...
[WinError 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: 'C:\\Users\\PRATIK~1\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\tmpf75l0wi5.cnf'
I have tried uninstalling and installing MySQL several times but nothing is helping.
I faced the same issues while trying to run a MySQL script. I tried to find the process in the temp folder and removed it and tried again but the process seems to start again and appears in the temp folder. I could not run the script, however, I found a workaround, instead of running the script try to open it and run it in the query editor.
Just downgrade your MySQL workbench version.
In my case I downgraded the version from
8.0.25 to 8.0.20.
The sounds like you already had tried that script execution before and stopped it without stopping the mysqld process. So this process (which does the actual import) still holds a file lock on the temporary config file.
Try removing that file and check that all MySQL processes that you don't want are stopped. Then try again.
It seems the actual issue is not related to MySQL itself, but to MySQL Workbench.
The error you're seeing is a generic error coming from Windows itself, not from MySQL. It's unclear how you're running MySQL, for example is it in your localhost, in a Docker environment, or in a remote server.
It seems clear that at least two processes are trying to get an exclusive lock on that temporary file. My guess is that MySQL won't write temporary files to the user folder we're seeing (with your username Pratik).
On Windows, MySQL checks in order the values of the TMPDIR, TEMP, and TMP environment variables. For the first one found to be set, MySQL uses it and does not check those remaining. If none of TMPDIR, TEMP, or TMP are set, MySQL uses the Windows system default, which is usually C:\windows\temp.
Something you can do is to change your MySQL configuration so it uses a specific Temporary path you'll set, restart MySQL and retry running the query. If you see the error contains your new temporary path you've isolated the issue, it is indeed a MySQL problem. If you keep seeing this path you've isolated the issue to MySQL WorkBench.
An alternative approach would be to run the same query from another MySQL client, for example the command-line client mysql; and see if you're getting the same error.
Probably the simpler approach would be to try the queries with dBeaver, another MySQL client, and use that to isolate the issue to either the MySQL server itself or MySQL WorkBench.
This is a common issue for the upgraded version of MySQL, Try using Open Script instead of Run Script and that seems to clear up the issue.
I've found that it was already reported in the official bug tracker: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=104841.
I've just checked, and it's still present in MySQL Workbench 8.0.30.
Work Around
Do not try to open the SQL file from this tool bar:
Go to Server > Data Import:
select import from self-contained file
select your target schema
then start import (bottom right btn)
Have inherited a MySQL database that was completely trashed by the latest Windows 10 build update. The server lost all the user and schema information.
I restored the database back and recreated the users, set all the permissions etc. Obviously I would like to mitigate against this happening in the future but can see no obvious way from workbench to generate a script to create the users and set the permissions as you would from SQL management studio.
Is this possible?
Yes this is possible.
You can execute requests with a batch that is loaded by MySQL with a command from the shell to make what you want done.
I had not tested it myself but I think this link could be helpful.
I have a SQL script which selects data from DB and stores it to files. I am unable to create a directory to store these files.
I have shell script that loads the SQL file. Shell and the SQL are on separate server than MySQL db. I would prefer to create this directory using SQL as I want to avoid ssh.
Any suggestions? Surprisingly I couldn't find anything on Google.
I will assume that you're using mysql, according to your tags. You could do it with a Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle database but unfortunately, at the moment, there is no solution to create a directory from MySQL.
Some will guide you with a workaround based on the creation of a data directory, I wouldn't recommand this, as it could lead to performances issues in the future, or worst.
The best solution would be to use a script (java, vbscript, SSH, batch, ...). Again, you won't be able to start this script within your SQL query easily. I know that's no good news, but it is important not to lead you on the wrong direction.
I would suggest to reverse your thinking, and start your SQL query from a script (again, any language you're used to).
I couldn't find any other way other than opening ssh session to the target box.
Open ssh session
Create directory
close ssh session
Load sql file using shell
The sql adds the generated files to the directory created in step 2.
ssh -t $USER#$HOST <<-SSH-END;
mkdir -p "dir/path";
exit;
SSH-END
Sharing just in case someone else needs to do the same.
I want to load the files of Yago database into my database in mysql. I tryed what is written in yago's website (to run the script Postgres.sql) but since I work on windows it does not recognize the "psql" operation. I tryed also to open the script directly in mysql but it says that there is sql syntax. What can I do? Thanks for helpers!
You are trying to load a Postgres SQL script into a mySQL database.
Postgres and mySQL speak different dialects of SQL and can't necessarily understand scripts meant for eachother.
If you want to load up a postgres SQL script, use a postgres database.
Installers for the windows version of postgres are available here:
https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/
Once you have postgres installed, you can then use an admin tool e.g.
PGadmin (https://www.pgadmin.org/) to run the script on your DB and import the information within.
Feel free to comment if you want more detailed instructions.
The title is self explanatory. Is there a way of directly doing such kind of importing?
The .BAK files from SQL server are in Microsoft Tape Format (MTF) ref: http://www.fpns.net/willy/msbackup.htm
The bak file will probably contain the LDF and MDF files that SQL server uses to store the database.
You will need to use SQL server to extract these. SQL Server Express is free and will do the job.
So, install SQL Server Express edition, and open the SQL Server Powershell. There execute sqlcmd -S <COMPUTERNAME>\SQLExpress (whilst logged in as administrator)
then issue the following command.
restore filelistonly from disk='c:\temp\mydbName-2009-09-29-v10.bak';
GO
This will list the contents of the backup - what you need is the first fields that tell you the logical names - one will be the actual database and the other the log file.
RESTORE DATABASE mydbName FROM disk='c:\temp\mydbName-2009-09-29-v10.bak'
WITH
MOVE 'mydbName' TO 'c:\temp\mydbName_data.mdf',
MOVE 'mydbName_log' TO 'c:\temp\mydbName_data.ldf';
GO
At this point you have extracted the database - then install Microsoft's "Sql Web Data Administrator". together with this export tool and you will have an SQL script that contains the database.
MySql have an application to import db from microsoft sql.
Steps:
Open MySql Workbench
Click on "Database Migration" (if it do not appear you have to install it from MySql update)
Follow the Migration Task List using the simple Wizard.
I did not manage to find a way to do it directly.
Instead I imported the bak file into SQL Server 2008 Express, and then used MySQL Migration Toolkit.
Worked like a charm!
In this problem, the answer is not updated in a timely. So it's happy to say that in 2020 Migrating to MsSQL into MySQL is that much easy. An online converter like RebaseData will do your job with one click. You can just upload your .bak file which is from MsSQL and convert it into .sql format which is readable to MySQL.
Additional note: This can not only convert your .bak files but also this site is for all types of Database migrations that you want.
Although my MySQL background is limited, I don't think you have much luck doing that. However, you should be able to migrate over all of your data by restoring the db to a MSSQL server, then creating a SSIS or DTS package to send your tables and data to the MySQL server.
hope this helps
I highly doubt it. You might want to use DTS/SSIS to do this as Levi says. One think that you might want to do is start the process without actually importing the data. Just do enough to get the basic table structures together. Then you are going to want to change around the resulting table structure, because whatever structure tat will likely be created will be shaky at best.
You might also have to take this a step further and create a staging area that takes in all the data first n a string (varchar) form. Then you can create a script that does validation and conversion to get it into the "real" database, because the two databases don't always work well together, especially when dealing with dates.
The method I used included part of Richard Harrison's method:
So, install SQL Server 2008 Express
edition,
This requires the download of the Web Platform Installer "wpilauncher_n.exe"
Once you have this installed click on the database selection ( you are also required to download Frameworks and Runtimes)
After instalation go to the windows command prompt and:
use sqlcmd -S \SQLExpress (whilst
logged in as administrator)
then issue the following command.
restore filelistonly from
disk='c:\temp\mydbName-2009-09-29-v10.bak';
GO This will list the contents of the
backup - what you need is the first
fields that tell you the logical names
- one will be the actual database and the other the log file.
RESTORE DATABASE mydbName FROM
disk='c:\temp\mydbName-2009-09-29-v10.bak' WITH MOVE 'mydbName' TO
'c:\temp\mydbName_data.mdf', MOVE
'mydbName_log' TO
'c:\temp\mydbName_data.ldf'; GO
I fired up Web Platform Installer and from the what's new tab I installed SQL Server Management Studio and browsed the db to make sure the data was there...
At that point i tried the tool included with MSSQL "SQL Import and Export Wizard" but the result of the csv dump only included the column names...
So instead I just exported results of queries like "select * from users" from the SQL Server Management Studio
SQL Server databases are very Microsoft proprietary. Two options I can think of are:
Dump the database in CSV, XML or similar format that you'd then load into MySQL.
Setup ODBC connection to MySQL and then using DTS transport the data. As Charles Graham has suggested, you may need to build the tables before doing this. But that's as easy as a cut and paste from SQL Enterprise Manager windows to the corresponding MySQL window.
For those attempting Richard's solution above, here are some additional information that might help navigate common errors:
1) When running restore filelistonly you may get Operating system error 5(Access is denied). If that's the case, open SQL Server Configuration Manager and change the login for SQLEXPRESS to a user that has local write privileges.
2) #"This will list the contents of the backup - what you need is the first fields that tell you the logical names" - if your file lists more than two headers you will need to also account for what to do with those files in the RESTORE DATABASE command. If you don't indicate what to do with files beyond the database and the log, the system will apparently try to use the attributes listed in the .bak file. Restoring a file from someone else's environment will produce a 'The path has invalid attributes. It needs to be a directory' (as the path in question doesn't exist on your machine).
Simply providing a MOVE statement resolves this problem.
In my case there was a third FTData type file. The MOVE command I added:
MOVE 'mydbName_log' TO 'c:\temp\mydbName_data.ldf',
MOVE 'sysft_...' TO 'c:\temp\other';
in my case I actually had to make a new directory for the third file. Initially I tried to send it to the same folder as the .mdf file but that produced a 'failed to initialize correctly' error on the third FTData file when I executed the restore.
The .bak file from SQL Server is specific to that database dialect, and not compatible with MySQL.
Try using etlalchemy to migrate your SQL Server database into MySQL. It is an open-sourced tool that I created to facilitate easy migrations between different RDBMS's.
