Amazing

Thanks

I don't think the source command will accept wildcards - join the files into one big one with the windows copy command.

Limited time = 3600 => what does mean 3600 ??

Thanks... I'm kind of surprised that there isn't wildcard functionality, you'd think it would make things a lot easier. ::shrug:: I did a quick

copy *.sql 2006-12-19.sql

And then

source c:\2006-12-19\2006-12-19.sql

And it seemed to restore fine. Thanks for the help... I thought it might be useful to post the specifics back in case any other non-linux fossils like myself come looking for an answer in the future ;-).

I assume there's a comparable command in linux to concatenate the files into a single .sql so that you can restore from a backup without going through (in the case of my particular DB) 182 source commands?

Adding a backup to single file option might be helpful, though I can see how having each table individually would be useful too...

Anyway, thx for the help!

3600 seconds (1 hour).

If there is I don't know what it is - I have to join them in windows.

::stunned shock::

How dreadfully ironic. In order to do a restore we have to ftp the files to a WINDOWS host to run a *command line* utility so we can put the file back up on the Linux host and run the restore? ::laughter::

I'd think the MySQL community would add wildcards just for that reason.

Sorry... I realize nobody else might find that amusing but I can't help it...

Thanks again Paul!

::wanders off chuckling::

worked fine

thank you

clicked;)

I get this error,
What do I do? Make a file for it to write too?

No, it means your web server does not have write permission to the folder you have chosen.

Nevermind! THANKS!!
