I successfully take backups of my database with this php code:
$command = "mysqldump --opt -h$dbhost -u$dbuser -p$dbpass $dbname |
gzip $backupfile.gz" ;
$dummy = system($command , $retval);
But I can not find the code for restoring a backup file. How is it
done?
Kind regards,

just copy the content in that backup file and paste it in mysql
console thats all.
or do this
$mysql -u username -p database < path/to/backup.sql
you have to do google search before you ask anything in mailing list .
I want to restore a .gz file not a .sql file.
I have tried:
$command = "mysql -u$dbuser -p$dbpass $dbname < $backupfile.gz" ;
$dummy = system($command , $retval);
($dummy === false) returns false and retval returns 1, but the
database is not restored.
What am I doing wrong?
Kind regards,

The .qz file is a compressed tar file.
tar xvfz <your file>.gz
Into a working directory and then perform the restore you with the plain
text file.

If OS is Unix, try:
$command = "gunzip --to-stdout $backupfile.gz | mysql -u$dbuser
-p$dbpass $dbname";

Hi all,
I've just converted the tables in a big database (approx 27 million
records) from MyISAM to InnoDB. When I was using MyISAM I backed up
the database by stopping MySQL and then copying the MYI, MYD, frm
files in the database directory, and restored the database in the same
way.
Is there a similar way to backup and restore InnoDB tables, or do I
have to use the InnoDB Hot Backup tool?

And I had used different restore options to test out the transaction
that was being applied. And I couldn't...

hi.
i need to restore an old database. The db was backed up using a DLT drive,
using 2 volumes. The content for the tapes was copied to file onto Solaris
machine using rsh and dd (for backup purposes). Now, the drive is defective
and can't read the tapes anymore.
Server is AIX 4.3.2 and database is IBM DB2 Server (DB2 for AIX Version

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
