I am trying to import a CSV with columns [ID, timestamp, account, liters]->[#, datetime, #, #] using the MYSQL workbench 6.3. MySQL creates the table fine using the CSV (imports 1 record) and then I reimport the same CSV for data rows. MySQL identifies the columns and matches them with table well. Then it takes a long time and reports that all rows have been imported but table shows no rows.
I have searched forums and seem people had problems with timestamps but the solutions involved using the commandline. Can someone please guide if I should format my csv differently? It's a big pain. Thanks
OK..so this was problem with date format. When I specified the datetime field, I couldn't see a field popping up at the bottom to specify the format as per https://docs.python.org/2/library/datetime.html#strftime-strptime-behavior (screen resolution issues). Anyway, I types in the matching format there and CSV is importing now..Thanks

I convert excel to csv first, then import to phpmyadmin only import 100 rows, I changed config.inc buffer size but still did not changed the result. Could you please help me ???
My main idea to do this, compare two tables on mysql workbench, I have one table already sql, i need excel to convert sql then i can use "compare schemas" creating EER Model of existing database.
Good you described the purpose of this approach. This way I can tell you in advance that it will not help to convert that Excel data to a MySQL table.
The model features (sync, compare etc.) all work on meta data only. They do not consider any table content. So instead you should do a textual comparison, by converting the table you have in the server to CSV.
Comparing such large documents is however a challenge. If you only have a few changes then using a diff tool (visual like Araxis Merge or diff on the command line) may help. For larger changesets a small utility app (may self written) might be necessary.
I am creating a big data with 9k rows and all that I have in XLS format witch is impossible to import through Wizard into the Workbench. I tried this
save into another Forman and import (Gives me an error)
importing as a row inside the tables (too big data impossible)
converted into CSV file with doc format(doest work same error as first try)
So what are other tools to do that.
My final wish is to upload two big tables both 9k rows and to match them all together.
I know how to match and do the rest, but stacked completely in the importing point.
I expect after Importing to see all my xls table in SQL workbench so I can match it to the other one that I have. I am using last version of SQLWB and Libre Office. My machine is MAC
5th day and still zero result... never ever had such problems.
I have a huge data in Excel. I need to import it into MySQL. I've saved my Excel file as CSV. There are several columns in my table which are having contact numbers. I've sat format for such fields to 'Number' with decimal places zero. When I saved it as CSV, its showing such values of such fields with Exponential Notification E+.
eg. Mobile_Number is 9840741284 but its showing 9.84E+09 in csv.
I am using MySQL Workbench 6.3 CE to view it. If I keep Mobile_Number column's datatype as int then it stores data as "2147483647" in mysql. All the records which are having Exponential sign are showing the same value in mysql which is 2147483647. That's why I changed the data type to varchar(255) from int. Now it showing result 9.84E+09 format. I am trying to import the data using load data infile command.
How to resolve it? Is there any other way to import data from excel to mysql as it is?
I've changed the data type of Mobile_Numbers to bigint rather than only int in mysql. And its working properly. Thanks a lot Adyson for great help.
I want to import an Excel file with 32,594 rows into MySQL. I have converted the file to .csv and used LOAD DATA INFILE (Source: http://blog.habrador.com/2013/01/how-to-import-large-csv-file-into-mysql.html).
However, the number of rows counted in MySQL is only 31,925. I checked whether the table was cut off during the import. But when I ordered my MySQL table by Number (PRIMARY KEY AND AUTO_INCREMENT) Desceding, the first row of the result had 32594 in the Number column.
I really do not understand why. Really hope someone could help me with this. Thanks
While uploading excel csv to mysql i find that '1000' becomes 1.00 and max value remains 999.99. While uploading same table with microsoft words spreadsheet it is fine but it has limitation of numbers of rows.how i can upload large table to mysql, i have csv data in .text files that has to be converted to .csv
It might be due to the thousand separator. Make sure that in your CSV, you see "1000" and not "1,000".
Also, see mySQL load data local infile incorrect number format, it might help you out.
The problem is either the formatting in your excel file or the limitations of numbers in your mysql table. Can you upload the file to google docs and show us the query which is used to create the table (alternatively - a screenshot of the table's structure)?
