Restoring SQL from multiple SQL files

Databases
1

Hi

I have a database backup with 400+ sql files. foreach table there is a separate sql file. Is it possible to import all this files together to a database? If so could you tell me how to do this?

Also the backup is a gzipped tar file. Is there a way to restore from a compressed file.?

Do you still have access to the database holding these records? If so you can download MySQL Workbench and export the database as a single file, which you can then either import or execute as a script?

Try this one:

  1. Go to Google, and type import mysql by ssh.
  2. Then use some tool rename file to sql1 to sql400.sql
  3. Write a loop on PHP or Perl to run that command import or just simple:
    open notepad, type the command:
    command sql1.sql
    command sql2.sql
    command sql3.sql

then copy and paste it on your SSH , enter, they will run line by line for you automatic.

Good luck,
