I have a huge mysql dump file generated from phpmyAdmin (150 000 lines of create table, inserts….)
The mySql query tool fails to open such a big file.
As a result i can’t insert all the records.
Is there a way to do this ?
Thanks
John
The solution to restore large mysql database from sql dump file is using unix/linux shell command.
To restore mysql database from a dump file, just type the command below:
Of course you need to replace #username# to your database username and #database# to your target database. and rename #dump_file# to your dump file file name (Ex: dump.sql) Once you enter the command, the linux/unix shell will prompt you for your database user password, just key in your database password and you are done
