I'm on a japanese system using xampp. This is the line I use to dump my database.
c:\xampp\mysql\bin>mysqldump.exe -uroot wp_newsja > dump.sql
Then I create a database on another server.
c:\xampp\mysql\bin>mysqladmin -uroot create db
But when I try to execute the sql...
c:\xampp\mysql\bin>mysql -uroot db < dump.sql
... I get the following error.
ERROR at line 145: Unknown command '￥''.
On a japanese computer windows path slashes / are represented with "￥". Which leads me to believe this is an utf8 issue. Maybe there is a way I can mysqldump with some utf8 flag? Thanks for any assistance! The exported sql is here: http://goo.gl/7MPVG - Error at line 145:
edit: Problem solved:
mysql --default-character-set=utf8 db < dump.sql
Sorry if I wasted anyone's time.
mysql --default-character-set=utf8 db < dump.sql
You can add this argument --default-character-set=utf8 in the command:
mysql -u USERNAME -p my_database --default-character-set=utf8 < "C:/My Document Names Have Spaces/my_dump.sql"
I've finally found this solution and it works fine with my new installed WampServer 2.5. I've also tried to add the default character setting in my.ini, but it's useless. Until I've tried the above argument added in my DOS batch file.
My batch file execute the command, like this way:
7zip x -so %1.%2.7z|%mysql% -uxxxx -pyyyyy %2 --default-character-set=utf8
For example, the 7zip filename is 20141231.google.7z, which contains "google.sql", and the database name is google
My backup process on Linux system was a 7zip compressed. In Winodws, I used an automatic batch file to restore the same contents, so that I can share the same database in my biz trip and work offline from the server.
Hope this method is helpful to you.

I have 29GB magento db .sql file that need to be imported into mysql database, I am using Ubuntu 22.04 operating system
I import into database using command line as below
mysql -u root -p
mysql > USE magento_project1
mysql > source db_dump.sql
The import seems to be working fine at first, but after a few hours of importing error as below comes out
ERROR at line 44259: ASCII '\0' appeard in the statement, but this is not alllowed unless option --binary-mode is enabled and mysql is run in non-interactive mode. Set --binary-mode to 1 if ASCII '\0' is expected. Query: '
Attached the image of the error
I noticed the query stopped when at the part it need to insert data into sales_order_payment table
I have try
rename the db_dump.sql file to db_dump.sql.gz
based on solution given here
import using command mysql -u root -p -f -D database_name < db_dump.sql.gz
when create database, create charset as utf8mb4, collation utf8mb4_general_ci
import using command mysql -u root -p -h localhost -D database_name --binary-mode -o < db_dump.sql
based on solution given here
When i write command file db_dump.sql.gz I get the result as below
db_dump.sql.gz: ASCII text, with very long lines (37268)
My ubuntu is already sudo apt-update and sudo apt-upgrade with mysql, php, nginx and elasticsearch installed and enabled
But none of the solution above fix the issue I am having
Able to fix the issue by dumping new database from magento cloud using command below
magento-cloud db:dump
0 -> Staging -> 0 ( database )
then import the db into local using command below
mysql -u root -p -f -D local_db < dumped_db.sql
Not sure what cause the error above on the first place, might be the db corrupted somewhere during transfer between pendrive ?
I am trying input datadump to mysql.5.7.19.
I command like below :
mysql -uroot -p temp < temp201708.sql
my my.cnf prints error to /var/log/mysqld.log, but I do not see any error log while dumping.
However, when jobs done, I can not find any tables or data in temp schema. I think I saw some articles that different mysql versions could be a problem. Is it right?
Currently, I do not know what point is wrong, since there were no error log. What should I look for to solve this problem?
Thanks.
FYI, I do not know what version of mysql which made that dump file, I just received from the client.
mysqldump -u root -p DatabaseName > /Path-To-put-The-File/fileName.sql
When doing a dump in mysql:
run cmd
locate location of your mysql server like
Enter:
cd C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin
mysqldump -uUsernameHere -pYourPasswordHere dbnamehere > "D:\sample.sql" make sure you have a drive D: in your computer or you can change it.
This is working and tested.
You can use it by calling a .bat file to execute the command.
Otherwise if you want to store a data into your Database use mysql only and not mysqldump and change > to <
like this:
mysql -uUsernameHere -pYourPasswordHere dbnamehere < "D:\sample.sql"
Thanks for answers.
I found the cause.
In the dump file, there are some states like USE mysql;, USE temp;.
So even though I indicate which schema to put in in command line,
it just ignore the command line and follow the script.
I found all of my data in mysql schema.
==========================
Conclusion
if you dump with some command like below
$ > mysqldump -u[user] -p[passwd] [scheme] > dump.sql
it is ok with
$ > mysql -u[user] -p[passwd] [target_scheme] < dump.sql
If not, you should check the contents of .sql file.
I want to execute a text file containing SQL queries, in MySQL.
I tried to run source /Desktop/test.sql and received the error:
mysql> . \home\sivakumar\Desktop\test.sql ERROR: Failed to open file
'\home\sivakumar\Desktop\test.sql', error: 2
Any idea on what I am doing wrong?
If you’re at the MySQL command line mysql> you have to declare the SQL file as source.
mysql> source \home\user\Desktop\test.sql;
You have quite a lot of options:
use the MySQL command line client: mysql -h hostname -u user database < path/to/test.sql
Install the MySQL GUI tools and open your SQL file, then execute it
Use phpmysql if the database is available via your webserver
you can execute mysql statements that have been written in a text file using the following command:
mysql -u yourusername -p yourpassword yourdatabase < text_file
if your database has not been created yet, log into your mysql first using:
mysql -u yourusername -p yourpassword
then:
mysql>CREATE DATABASE a_new_database_name
then:
mysql -u yourusername -p yourpassword a_new_database_name < text_file
that should do it!
More info here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-batch-commands.html
My favorite option to do that will be:
mysql --user="username" --database="databasename" --password="yourpassword" < "filepath"
I use it this way because when you string it with "" you avoiding wrong path and mistakes with spaces and - and probably more problems with chars that I did not encounter with.
With #elcuco comment I suggest using this command with [space] before so it tell bash to ignore saving it in history, this will work out of the box in most bash.
in case it still saving your command in history please view the following solutions:
Execute command without keeping it in history
extra security edit
Just in case you want to be extra safe you can use the following command and enter the password in the command line input:
mysql --user="username" --database="databasename" -p < "filepath"
All the top answers are good. But just in case someone wants to run the query from a text file on a remote server AND save results to a file (instead of showing on console), you can do this:
mysql -u yourusername -p yourpassword yourdatabase < query_file > results_file
Hope this helps someone.
I came here searching for this answer as well, and here is what I found works the best for me: Note I am using Ubuntu 16.x.x
Access mysql using:
mysql -u <your_user> - p
At the mysql prompt, enter:
source file_name.sql
Hope this helps.
Give the path of .sql file as:
source c:/dump/SQL/file_name.sql;
mysql> source C:\Users\admin\Desktop\fn_Split.sql
Do not specify single quotes.
If the above command is not working, copy the file to c: drive and try again.
as shown below,
mysql> source C:\fn_Split.sql
instead of redirection I would do the following
mysql -h <hostname> -u <username> --password=<password> -D <database> -e 'source <path-to-sql-file>'
This will execute the file path-to-sql-file
Never is a good practice to pass the password argument directly from the command line, it is saved in the ~/.bash_history file and can be accessible from other applications.
Use this instead:
mysql -u user --host host --port 9999 database_name < /scripts/script.sql -p
Enter password:
mysql -uusername -ppassword database-name < file.sql
So many ways to do it.
From Workbench: File > Run SQL Script -- then follow prompts
From Windows Command Line:
Option 1: mysql -u usr -p
mysql> source file_path.sql
Option 2: mysql -u usr -p '-e source file_path.sql'
Option 3: mysql -u usr -p < file_path.sql
Option 4: put multiple 'source' statements inside of file_path.sql (I do this to drop and recreate schemas/databases which requires multiple files to be run)
mysql -u usr -p < file_path.sql
If you get errors from the command line, make sure you have previously run
cd {!!>>mysqld.exe home directory here<<!!}
mysqld.exe --initialize
This must be run from within the mysqld.exe directory, hence the CD.
Hope this is helpful and not just redundant.
From linux 14.04 to MySql 5.7, using cat command piped with mysql login:
cat /Desktop/test.sql | sudo mysql -uroot -p
You can use this method for many MySQL commands to execute directly from Shell. Eg:
echo "USE my_db; SHOW tables;" | sudo mysql -uroot -p
Make sure you separate your commands with semicolon (';').
I didn't see this approach in the answers above and thought it is a good contribution.
Very likely, you just need to change the slash/blackslash:
from
\home\sivakumar\Desktop\test.sql
to
/home/sivakumar/Desktop/test.sql
So the command would be:
source /home/sivakumar/Desktop/test.sql
use the following from mysql command prompt-
source \\home\\user\\Desktop\\test.sql;
Use no quotation. Even if the path contains space(' ') use no quotation at all.
Since mysql -u yourusername -p yourpassword yourdatabase < text_file did not work on a remote server (Amazon's EC2)...
Make sure that the Database is created first.
Then:
mysql --host=localhost --user=your_username --password=your_password your_database_name < pathTofilename.sql
For future reference, I've found this to work vs the aforementioned methods, under Windows in your msql console:
mysql>>source c://path_to_file//path_to_file//file_name.sql;
If your root drive isn't called "c" then just interchange with what your drive is called. First try backslashes, if they dont work, try the forward slash. If they also don't work, ensure you have your full file path, the .sql extension on the file name, and if your version insists on semi-colons, ensure it's there and try again.
If you are here LOOKING FOR A DRUPAL ENVIRONMENT
You can run with drush command on your project directory
drush sqlc
If you are trying this command :
mysql -u root -proot -D database < /path/to/script.sql
You may get an error like this : if you have special characters, mainly '`'
ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 1: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '/path/to/script.sql' at line 1
So I would suggest to use a command like this :
echo "source /path/to/script.sql" | mysql -u root -proot -D database
This command will execute source /path/to/script.sql once connected to the server, which execute your script.
I had this error, and tried all the advice i could get to no avail.
Finally, the problem was that my folder had a space in the folder name which appearing as a forward-slash in the folder path, once i found and removed it, it worked fine.
I use Bash's Here Strings for an instant SQL execution:
mysql -uroot -p <<<"select date(now())"
https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Redirections.html#Here-Strings
I have a database called nitm. I haven't created any tables there. But I have a SQL file which contains all the necessary data for the database. The file is nitm.sql which is in C:\ drive. This file has size of about 103 MB. I am using wamp server.
I have used the following syntax in MySQL console to import the file:
mysql>c:/nitm.sql;
But this didn't work.
From the mysql console:
mysql> use DATABASE_NAME;
mysql> source path/to/file.sql;
make sure there is no slash before path if you are referring to a relative path... it took me a while to realize that! lol
Finally, i solved the problem. I placed the `nitm.sql` file in `bin` file of the `mysql` folder and used the following syntax.
C:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.51b\bin>mysql -u root nitm < nitm.sql
And this worked.
If you are using wamp you can try this. Just type use your_Database_name first.
Click your wamp server icon then look for MYSQL > MSQL Console then run it.
If you dont have password, just hit enter and type :
mysql> use database_name;
mysql> source location_of_your_file;
If you have password, you will promt to enter a password. Enter you password first then type:
mysql> use database_name;
mysql> source location_of_your_file;
location_of_your_file should look like C:\mydb.sql
so the commend is mysql>source C:\mydb.sql;
This kind of importing sql dump is very helpful for BIG SQL FILE.
I copied my file mydb.sq to directory C: .It should be capital C: in order to run
and that's it.
In windows, if the above suggestion gives you an error (file not found or unknown db) you may want to double the forward slashes:
In the mysql console:
mysql> use DATABASE_NAME;
mysql> source C://path//to//file.sql;
Ok so, I'm using Linux but I think this holds true for Windows too.
You can do this either directly from the command prompt
> mysql -u <user name> -p<password> <database name> < sqlfilename.sql
Or from within the mysql prompt, you can use:
mysql>source sqlfilename.sql
But both these approaches have their own benefits in the results they display.
In the first approach, the script exits as soon as it encounters an error. And the better part, is that it tells you the exact line number in the source file where the error occurred. However, it ONLY displays errors. If it didn't encounter any errors, the scripts displays NOTHING. Which can be a little unnerving. Because you're most often running a script with a whole pile of commands.
Now second approach (from within the mysql prompt) has the benefit that it displays a message for every different MySQL command in the script. If it encounters errors, it displays the mysql error message but continues on through the scripts. This can be good, because you can then go back and fix all the errors before you run the script again. The downside is that it does NOT display the line numbers in the script where the errors were encountered. This can be a bit of a pain. But the error messages are as descriptive so you could probably figure out where the problem is.
I, for one, prefer the directly-from-OS-command line approach.
If you are using xampp
C:\xampp\mysql\bin\mysql -uroot -p nitm < nitm.sql
You are almost there
use
mysql> \. c:/nitm.sql;
You may also access help by
mysql> \?
For localhost on XAMPP. Open a cmd window and type
cd C:\xampp\mysql\bin
mysql.exe -u root -p
Attention! No semi-colon after -p
Enter your password and type
use database_name;
to select the database you need.
Check if your table is there
show tables;
Import from your sql file
source sqlfile.sql;
I have put my file on C:\xampp\mysql\bin location in order to don't mix up with locations of sql file.
Try:
mysql -u username -p database_name < file.sql
Check MySQL Options.
Note: It is better to use the full path of the SQL file file.sql.
Don't forget to use
charset utf8
If your sql file is in utf-8 :)
So you need to do:
cmd.exe
mysql -u root
mysql> charset utf8
mysql> use mydbname
mysql> source C:\myfolder\myfile.sql
Good luck ))
In Linux I navigated to the directory containing the .sql file before starting mysql. The system cursor is now in the same location as the file and you won't need a path. Use source myData.sql where my date is replaced with the name of your file.
cd whatever directory
mysql - p
connect targetDB
source myData.sql
Done
from the command line (cmd.exe, not from within mysql shell) try something like:
type c:/nite.sql | mysql -uuser -ppassword dbname
Does your dump contain features that are not supported in your version of MySQL? You can also try to remove the starting (and ending) MySQL commented SET-statements.
I don't know if your dump comes from a Linux version of MySQL (line endings)?
I have installed my wamp server in D: drive so u have to go to the following path from ur command line->(and if u have installed ur wamp in c: drive then just replace the d: wtih c: here)
D:\>cd wamp
D:\wamp>cd bin
D:\wamp\bin>cd mysql
D:\wamp\bin\mysql>cd mysql5.5.8 (whatever ur verserion will be displayed here use keyboard Tab button)
D:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.8>cd bin
D:\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.5.8\bin>mysql -u root -p password db_name < "d:\backupfile.sql"
here root is user of my phpmyadmin
password is the password for phpmyadmin so if u haven't set any password for root just nothing type at that place,
db_name is the database (for which database u r taking the backup)
,backupfile.sql is the file from which u want ur backup of ur database and u can also change the backup file location(d:\backupfile.sql) from to any other place on your computer
mysql>c:/nitm.sql;
That would write the output of the mysql command to 'nitm.sql;' (What's the ';' supposed to do?) Assuming you've got a copy of the original file (before you overwrote it) then:
mysql < c:/nitm.sql
Export Particular DataBases
djimi:> mysqldump --user=root --host=localhost --port=3306 --password=test -B CCR KIT >ccr_kit_local.sql
this will export CCR and KIT databases...
Import All Exported DB to Particular Mysql Instance (You have to be where your dump file is)
djimi:> mysql --user=root --host=localhost --port=3306 --password=test < ccr_kit_local.sql
In Windows OS the following commands works for me.
mysql>Use <DatabaseName>
mysql>SOURCE C:/data/ScriptFile.sql;
No single quotes or double quotes around file name. Path would contain '/' instead of '\'.
For those of you struggling with getting this done trying every possible answer you can find on SO. Here's what worked for me on a VPS running Windows 2012 R2 :
Place your sql file wherever the bin is for me it is located at C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin
Open windows command prompt (cmd)
Run C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin > mysql -u [username] -p
Enter your password
Run command use [database_name];
Import your file with command source C://Program Files//MySQL//MySQL Server 8.0//bin//mydatabasename.sql
It did it for me as everything else had failed. It might help you too.
I have a MySQL file, db.sql. I have tried to import it using:
mysql -uroot -p[password] db < db.sql
All I get is a listing of mysql commands, or I get a syntax error. The weird thing is I used this file last week and, as far as I know, I'm doing it the same way.
I create the database, then in command line enter the above but it's not working. I've tried being inside mysql and just at command line and nothing seems to be working.
Is there something I should be doing differently in windows or MySQL5? I don't know how the heck I got it to work the first time...
TIA
Try this instead:
mysql -u root -p
(prompts for password)
use db;
source db.sql
I found out it is different to run this command from Windows Command Line (cmd.exe) and Windows PowerShell.
Using CMD.exe the command works okay, but in PowerShell I get this error:
mysql -uroot exampledb < exampledb.sql
The '<' operator is reserved for future use.
Not sure if your example was a typo or not, but for starters you need to have a space in between your flags and their values, roughly like this:
mysql -u root -p [password] db < db.sql
If you are already logged in the try this it will be very useful, but depend upon the MySQL version, it works on MySQL 5.0
For log in if you are not already logged in.
mysql>[your password]
Other wise, use the database to which you want to import the SQLDump file by command.
mysql>use [your database name]
And then give source the database Dump file path as blow command(If not works the copy Dump database file to the bin folder where the MySQL installed for eg. "C:/programfiles/mysql/mqlserver5.0/bin")
mysql> source [dataBasePath+name.sql or dataBaseName.sql]
I've been using PHP script called "BigDump":
http://www.ozerov.de/bigdump.php
This perfectly works
mysql>[your password]
Other wise, use the database to which you want to import the SQLDump file by command.
mysql>use [your database name]
And then give source the database Dump file path as blow command(If not works the copy Dump database file to the bin folder where the MySQL installed for eg. "C:/programfiles/mysql/mqlserver5.0/bin")
mysql> source [dataBasePath+name.sql or dataBaseName.sql]EG: source C:.....sql
I am using mysql server 5.5
In Windows PowerShell, you can pipe in the contents like so:
Get-Content db.sql | mysql -u root -p [password]
