I'm a Windows user but I've been asked to write a script that runs on Linux that does automatic backup for the MySQL database. I know how to do the backup (using mysqldump) but I don't know how to write a script in Linux and how to schedule it to run daily. How can it be done ?

How can I dump some of the tables from my mysql database into an sql file in C#?
Is there a class which does this?
UPDATE: just wanted to mention to DO NOT USE mysqldump, because this application will be installed on many computers and the mysql folder could be on different places.

Suggestions appreciated.

Hi,
Im recording slow queries longer than 2 seconds. That is running fine except, the daily backups also get recorded in slow log because 1) mysqldump calls select * from xyz (big table); and 2) when inserting the backup into a new db (yesterday's backup, sundays backup, etc).
How to prevent mysqldump from logging slow queries?
Is there...
I've got a problem trying to build a easy backup/upgrade database script.
The error is in the mysqldump call using subprocess:

Hi all,
Does anyone have a simple solution to using (or modifying) dumpdata to trucate a simple table down to the last n lines. I like to use dump data for test fixtures but the data size has gotten so large this doesn't make sense. BTW - I didn't design the table I'm just the sucker which has to deal with it.
For those who may ask h...
I have a database that's currently running on a 5.0.27 server. I want to move to a new 5.1.41 server.
I mysqldump'd all the files. When restoring, I get an error
ERROR 1062 (23000) at line 21: Duplicate entry 'weiÃ' for key 'title'
I've narrowed the failure down to this script, which I can run and it fails:

Hello,
I am not an expert in MS Access, I have been given a text files basically with over hundred thousand records in it and have been asked to load that text file into the MS access database. As I know MySQL, I uploaded that text file into the MySQL database first using normal Load text file command and it worked as expected. How...
I'd like to get dumps of each mysql table into separate files. The manual indicates that the syntax for this is
mysqldump [options] db_name [tbl_name ...]
Which indicates that you know the table names before hand. I could set up the script that knows each table name now, but say I add a new table down the road and forget to update th...

Hi,
I have 2 databases with MyISAM tables which are updated once a week. They are quite big in size (one DB is 2GB and the other is 6GB). I currently back them up once a week with mysqldump and keep the last 2 weeks' worth of .sql dumps on the same server where the DBs are running.
I would like, however, to be able to dump the backups ...
The backup was made using phpMyAdmin with extended inserts enabled and is ~80MB in size. mysqldump does not complain restoring it (yet!) but it takes a long (>2 hours) time to do so. Insights ?
Very stupid of me, I was using a wrong syntax. Reading the manuals fixed it :-)

We need to dump existing production data and then import it to a development DB for final rounds of testing.
In pseudo-commands, currently we:
mysqldump ....
mysql -u __USER__ __DB__ < ./dbdump.sql

The problem is that the middle command does the import and takes over an hour to import 600MB of data. Maybe thi...
