[Resolved] mysql command line Question

[dreams4000]

Hi all, im trying to upload a mysql file via the command line since it is too large for phpmyadmin. I have run mysql --user=user_name --password=your_password db_name to get things rolling and tried various other mysql commands but all i get is a mysql: Command not found. mysql is running, I can access it via php programming and run commands that way but not from the command line. Any ideas?

Guess no one else has ever had this issue?:\

What's giving you the Command Not Found message, the command tool or mysql?

If it's the command tool then mysql isn't in your path. I've never seen that response from mysql itself.

Hey thanks for the post. The path question got me looking more at that. Mysql was in a goofy path, so as long as I put the path infront of the mysql commands, it now works. appreciate the tip🙂
