Hi,

I am getting the following error
[root@lnxserver bak]# mysqldump -u root -ppassw0rd -D test5 < 20080602-sugarcrm.sql
mysqldump: unknown option '-D'

Thanks

Hi Tom
Small correction instead of mysqldump please use mysql only

mysql -u root -ppassw0rd -D test5 < 20080602-sugarcrm.sql

I took back of a database now , then dropped it , then used mysql command

" mysql -u root -psecret -D accountadmin < accountadmin.sql "

and it worked fine for me
I did check the database , I could see the tables being restored
I tried and tested this in a PC with
"MySQL Server version: 5.0.45-Debian_1ubuntu3.3-log Debian etch distribution"
Thanks
