I connect to my college's server via SSH Secure Shell Client (don't know who here's familiar with that, but that shouldn't matter.. you might be able to help any way). So, after connecting to the server and getting a prompt, I log into mySQL, in turn getting the mySQL prompt (which looks simply like "mysql>").
I have a file named "CreatePremiere.sql" in a folder called "CIS331." My question is how to I run this file... meaning what do I type at the mySQL prompt, to run it?
What I tried at the "mysql>" prompt, but didn't work, was this:
\. CIS331/CreatePremiere.sql
I got a file doesn't exist or something like that, so I know I'm typing it wrong, but how should it be typed?
Nevermind. Figured it out. The UNIX shell wanted me to append my user name with an underscore and something else, to my other log in information, before entering into mySQL. And something else that I had problems with, was getting my GUI front-end client's tunneling to work, but I finally got that set up succesfully now as well.
