Hi Ramesh,
i am working CentOS 4.1 with help of virtual box. installed mysql5.0 and i am installed groupware application , now i am backup the Application Database.
i am import my db in mysql following this query,
/usr/local/req/mysql-5.0/bin/mysql –defaults-file=/usr/local/req/mysql-5.0/etc/my.ini -u cbroot -p dbname.

Now i am execute mysqldump command like following way,
mysqldump -u cbroot -p dbname > filename.sql
asking password,
after giving password,
showing error message like,
mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user ‘cbroot’@'localhost’ (using password: YES) when trying to connect.
I am confused.
I give a user privileges for cbroot user,
+—————————————————————————————————————+
| Grants for cbroot@localhost |
+—————————————————————————————————————+
| GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO ‘cbroot’@'localhost’ IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD ‘*AFACA011891A17C03C93DA27B3D157E7A4964A22′ |
| GRANT SELECT, LOCK TABLES ON `cb_grant`.* TO ‘cbroot’@'localhost’ |
+——————————————————————————————————-+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

How can i solve this problem?

Hi,

What if the dump file outputs an big chunk of XML data of the entire database, how can I restore it back the entire schema + data back into the database? I have only manage to find out information on how to import back when the dump file is *.sql, not sure how can I import back if the output source file is a .xml.

Any help is appreciated.

Ray / Bret ==>
Two solutions for your problem :
1. Prior to installation of MySQL, set timezone from “setup” command in linux and proceed with mysql installation, Or, Simply , You can edit the backup dump and remove the timestamp entry to ignore such kindof error.

Manoj ==> Its important that you dont need to stop the mysql when you are about to take the backup of the database, if you do so, you will get the error “Failed to locate MySQL socket at port XXX”, Also, what does mysqldump will do is to copy the scattered control file+data files data in to sql statement and redirecting to the .sql files thats it, so when if your service is down, you dont have the data files loaded in memory to read upon …!!!

BINU ==> To restore content to new database, refer comment #19 and #20 of this thread.

Thank you,
