mysql -u xclnews -p xclnews-drupal < /big/dom/xclnews/www/drupal/database/database4.0.mysql
Then I get a request for password, enter password and then I get a "2002 error, can't connect to local mysql server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' "
Any help PLEASE
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
