I have a PostgreSQL schema file, and I have an SQL dump from a MySQL database. I want to know how I can import my MySQL dump file into Postgresql, using the postgresql schema file.
You cna't direct restore mysql dump file into postgres
You use psotgresql wiki or specific software trasnfer like:
Postgresql wiki
ESF Database Migration Toolkit
Can you install another MySQL, load the dump there, and export the data in CSV format? This should allow you to load the data into PostgreSQL, using the COPY command.

I have recently switched web hosting providers and the new provider does not allow 'load data infile' commands in MySQL. However, I have many CSV files that update tables in a database weekly using that command. What is the best way to import into MySQL without the typical load data option? I tried mysqlimport, but that seems to fail since the data isn't in SQL format, its just standard CSV data. Thanks for your help.
Use the following process:
Convert the CSV to the MySQL CSV dump format
Upload the file to the MySQL server or to the shared hosting file system
Use one of the following commands to import it:
mysqladmin:
mysqladmin create db1
mysql db1 < dump.csv
mysql:
mysql> CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS db1;
mysql> USE db1;
mysql> source dump.csv

I'm using HBase 0.92.1-cdh4.1.2. I have almost 100 tables in HBase [Size about 10GB]. I want to export all the data to MYSQL. I think sqoop isn't an viable option as it is used mostly to export from sql-nosql databases. And an other option would be exporting HBase data as flat files to local file system and dump the data to mysql using mysqlimport option !
Is there anyway, we can directly dump the data to mysql rather than exporting as flat files?
I have a database. All I want to do is dump ALL the existing data in every table to I can then use it to simply import the SQL to my new database?
Im presuming the dump will be a bunch of MySQL INSERT statements
You can also use mysqldump, native mysql tool for this purpose.
You can use a tool such as mysql workbench or phpmyadmin to create the dump.
It will be a bunch of inserts as well as all the other data in it (such as procedures).
Currently experiencing an issue whereby I am exporting a MySQL structure and data from a server into a sql file, ready for importing into a local database.
When importing the sql file into a local database, numerous records are changing dramatically. The columns in question tend to be of type bit(1).
The local setup uses the following versions Apache 2.2.17, PHP 5.3.5 and MySQL 5.5.8.
The server is currently using MySQL 5.1.56.
Any ideas what can be done to rectify this scenario?
Try using the --hex-blob parameter with the mysqldump utility when obtaining the sql dump.
Is there any database schema generation tool that creates schema diagram
by importing the mysql .sql database schema file.
I believe that MySQL Workbench is what you're looking for.
I haven't done it myself, but it does support importing of SQL files.
Also you can point your existing DB to Workbench and create a schema graphically and do what ever changes you prefer.
Then you can export a set of new changes to a different SQL so, you can easily upgrade your production databases.
