mysql使用命令行还原file.sql语法错误

Question

when I input

mysql -u root -p XXXX dbname < c:/filename.sql

alway get this error "error 1064 <42000>:" you have an error in your SQL suntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySql server version for the right syntax to use near .....

what is wrong with this statement?

Answer 1

I resolved it using PowerShell:

Get-Content "c:/filename.sql" | .\\mysql.exe -uroot -pXXXX dbname

Answer 2

It is due to a reserved word in MySQL, typically because of a version mismatch.

Answer 3

right one is C:\\Program Files\\MySQL\\MySQL Server 5.0\\bin>mysqldump -u root -p mysql>backup_database.sql Enter password: ********

my path not right. Should not log into mysql and then execute that statement
