ERROR:
Unknown command '\x'.

*** one other problem with this works fine when i tried by go to phpmyadmin
and import the file .
why this happening , i have no idea , please help ..................
My original answer:
mysql> SOURCE C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\elephanti2\\db\\mas_gis_city_ip.sql;
You could also try executing the command like this:
mysql> SOURCE C:/xampp/htdocs/elephanti2/db/mas_gis_city_ip.sql;
(Source: a comment in the reference manual suggests using forward slashes on Windows machines)
Try quoting your file name. Notice your command:
mysql> SOURCE C:\\xampp\\htdocs...
is probably being interpreted as:
mysql SOURCE C: \\xampp \\htdocs...
(see the \\x there?)
If you quote the file name, I bet it'll work. (not sure if mysql requires ' or " for quoting filenames in this context, try both)
Actually this worked. I think it is dwuff's previous answer.
mysql> SOURCE C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\elephanti2\\db\\mas_gis_city_ip.sql;
I had the same problem recently trying to install FossTrak, and this was the syntax that worked on windows 10, with Mysql 5.7
\\. C:/share/epcis-repository-0.5.0/epcis_schema.sql
using \\source
did not, and neither did \\\\
, and by accident i removed the ;
and it worked.
