Hello, All,
Good Evening .

What is the command to create a copy of an existing database in mysql?
I need to manipulate my code using duplicate of my database.

I tried using mysql dump command to put duplicate copy on my desktop as:

Cd /usr/local/mysql/bin
./mysqldump studentdb > ~/Desktop/studentdb.sql

But unsuccessful.


Help me Professionals.

mysqldump is one such command. Perhaps you should try one of the GUI tools to assist.
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
