Hi AjK,

I named my database "drupal".

So in the first example, the command would be
mysql -u xclnews -p xclnews-drupal -D drupal< \
/big/dom/xclnews/www/drupal/database/database.4.0.mysql

Is this what you suggest?

What does the -D signify?

thanks,
Tony

Missing database name: try this for unix sockets:-
[Replace "xclnews_db" with your database name]

mysql -u xclnews -p xclnews-drupal -D xclnews_db < \
/big/dom/xclnews/www/drupal/database/database4.0.mysql

or this for TCP connect:-

mysql -u xclnews -p xclnews-drupal -h 127.0.0.1 -P 3306 -D xclnews_db < \
/big/dom/xclnews/www/drupal/database/database4.0.mysql

regards
