Question

I have a mysql(v5) database running on my computer in college,

how do i go about placing this database onto a server?

if there is a way to export the schema and recreate the database that would be handy.

if i could put all the information from the database that would be a plus,

Answer 1

Dump the database into a file:

mysqldump -u username -p dbname > dbname.sql

now import the sql file using:

mysql -u username dbname < dbname.sql

make sure to place username with the actual username, maybe root for instance.
