Is there a standard way, now that the MySQL migration toolkit is no longer supported, to transition a SQL Server database to MySQL.

I’ve tried running older versions of the Migration tool, but I keep getting java RE issues. I installed JRE 5.0u8, but am still getting weird java issues (I suspect just due to the software not being updated).

I also tried exporting the data as CSV’s, but SQL Server keeps spitting out ill-formed CSV’s that MySQL can’t import, and I have no idea why. Just get duplicate primary key errors, even though when I grep the “bad” key, there is only one occurrence of it in the file. And yes, I truncated the table before trying to import.

    It took some time, but eventually the csv method worked for me. SQL Server was outputting some weird characters, I just had to track those down.
