Mysql – Powershell script while executing thesqldump script

It could be your admin user is connecting from admin@127.0.0.1.

Assuming admin is the actual user you have privileges on, try connecting through:

> mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -u admin -p

The way MySQL handles users, the host is very important, and in this case 127.0.0.1 is different than localhost.

If your phpMyAdmin user has access to the mysql database, you can the following statement to see what user/host combinations exist on your install.

 SELECT User, Host FROM mysql.user

Your 1st mysqldump makes table structures and INSERTs and puts it in dump.sql.

Your 2nd dump is a remote dump that is piped straight into mysql in localhost.

If you are trying to catch any output based on errors, try this:

mysqldump -alv -h 123.123.123.123 --user=username --password=p@ssw0rd --add-drop-table databasename 2> output.log | mysql --user=username --password=p@ssw0rd -h localhost localdatabase

Using 2> will catch any error-based output (aka stderr). The mysqldump should still pipe normal console output (aka stdout) to the other mysql session and load the data as intended.

EXAMPLE : I have a small database called sample on my PC.

I ran this:

C:\LWDBA>mysqldump -u... -p... --verbose sample 2>sample.txt > sample.sql

C:\LWDBA>type sample.txt
