Hi Experts
I am new to MySQL server and I have just started to play with it. I want to create demo database Employees. I downloaded several .sql files and several .dump files. I understand that sql files contains mainly instructions how to setup database and individual tables, indexes etc. Dump files contains data to be inserted into given tables.
I installed MySql server on Unraid server (here it is installed as docker).
When I connect to server via MySQL Bench, all is OK. I am able to run queries, I am able to run Employees.sql but it gives me error as soon as it reaches where DUMP files are mentioned.
It looks that MySQL is not searching for dump files in directore of remote computer from which I started SQL script, but elsewhere.
So my question how to import data into mySQL from DUMP file?
Many thanks
Vladimir
