Question

This is the code I tried for exporting the database.

    //MysqlPath = "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin\"
    String executeCmd = "\"" +Mysqlpath+ " mysqldump -u " + dbUser
                + " -p" + dbPass + " " + dbName + " -r " + FilePath + "\\"
                + FileName;

    System.out.println(executeCmd);
    Process runtimeProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(executeCmd);

I get the following error :

***Cannot run program """C:\Program": CreateProcess error=87, The parameter is incorrect***

How can I solve this?

Try this :

File fMysqlPath = new File("C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.1\\bin\\");
String executeCmd = "mysqldump -u " + dbUser
            + " -p" + dbPass + " " + dbName + " -r " + FilePath + "\\"
            + FileName;

System.out.println(executeCmd);
Process runtimeProcess = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(executeCmd, null, fMysqlPath);
