Question

I read many tutorials online on how to import sql scripts using ssh, and that is mysql –u [username] –p [database] < [file_name].sql but only works for single database. I created an sql file of my localhost (all databases), I did this using PhpMyAdmin and tried to use the code of importing but nothing happens.

Is there a separate way on how to do this?

Answer 1

As long as you don’t specify the --one-database arg, there’s nothing preventing you from adding a USE <some-other-db>; statement as necessary within your .sql file.
