I did an update on my db, but can't find the file so I can download it. Where is the file located at? Thanks in advance
root#xxxx:~# mysqldump -u root -p cherio > myBackup.sql
Enter password:
root#xxxx:~# find myBackup.sql
myBackup.sql
EDIT:
I tried this:
root#xxxx:~# find / -name "myBackup.sql"
/root/myBackup.sql
Ok, I had to refresh my FTP for the file to show up.
On the same directory you made the dump. It's ./myBackup.sql and not myBackup.sql
Do an ls -all.
It is in the same directory where you ran this command. To check this, run "pwd", it will give you your current path. Then run the command and it will store the database file in the same directory.
To get generated file properly run following command,
mysqldump --database --user=root --password your_db_name > export_into_db.sql
This will give you the "export_into_db.sql" database file.
Play with it.
Enjoy...
It is at either at root or in current directory where you run the dump command.
try this command on terminal..
locate myBackup.sql
I had the same problem.
It comes out that for some reason I could not create any file at root directory.
Try to go into some deeper folder
For example
cd var
cd www
and than execute:
mysqldump -uUSERNAME -pPASSWORD DATABASE > backup.sql

I Installed mongod v4.2.14 on a debian machine and after that I do nothing to db just connected to it for the first time.
Please help me to restore this folder into this instance. my problem is that when I use mongorestore without authentication it gives me error and I know that in mongodb we dont have a global username and pasword, I dont know what to place in -u and -p ?
'mongorestore -u WHAT!!! -p WHAT!!! --authenticationDatabase admin -d zaer_db ./zaer_db2
'
the problem was that I created a db before and setup a password for it. I reinstalled linux and reinstalled mongodb and mongorestore worked fine without password.
I tried to find it out on google, but didn't worked well so I hope to find help here! :)
I am trying to create a pg_dump file on mac osx but there is no \bin folder as needed in cmd on windows.
My question is how to create the pg_dump file on mac osx?
Best regards!
Depends on where you installed PostgreSQL from. If its the .dmg from postgresql.org then the command will be in:
/Library/PostgreSQL/<version eg. 9.6>/bin
This is not in the PATH so you will have to either cd to the directory and run the command or add the directory to the PATH.
Another option is to search for the command with:
cd /
find ./ -name pg_dump
I'm on a Windows machine using Git 2.7.2.windows.1 with MinGW 64.
I have a script in C:/path/to/scripts/myScript.sh.
How do I execute this script from my Git Bash instance?
It was possible to add it to the .bashrc file and then just execute the entire bashrc file.
But I want to add the script to a separate file and execute it from there.
Let's say you have a script script.sh. To run it (using Git Bash), you do the following: [a] Add a "sh-bang" line on the first line (e.g. #!/bin/bash) and then [b]:
# Use ./ (or any valid dir spec):
./script.sh
Note: chmod +x does nothing to a script's executability on Git Bash. It won't hurt to run it, but it won't accomplish anything either.
#!/usr/bin/env sh
this is how git bash knows a file is executable. chmod a+x does nothing in gitbash. (Note: any "she-bang" will work, e.g. #!/bin/bash, etc.)
If you wish to execute a script file from the git bash prompt on Windows, just precede the script file with sh
sh my_awesome_script.sh
if you are on Linux or ubuntu write ./file_name.sh
and you are on windows just write sh before file name like that sh file_name.sh
For Linux -> ./filename.sh
For Windows -> sh file_name.sh
If your running export command in your bash script the above-given solution may not export anything even if it will run the script. As an alternative for that, you can run your script using
. script.sh
Now if you try to echo your var it will be shown. Check my the result on my git bash
(coffeeapp) user (master *) capstone
$ . setup.sh
done
(coffeeapp) user (master *) capstone
$ echo $ALGORITHMS
[RS256]
(coffeeapp) user (master *) capstone
$

I had a similar problem, but I was getting an error message
cannot execute binary file
I discovered that the filename contained non-ASCII characters. When those were fixed, the script ran fine with ./script.sh.
Once you're in the directory, just run it as ./myScript.sh
If by any chance you've changed the default open for .sh files to a text editor like I had, you can just "bash .\yourscript.sh", provided you have git bash installed and in path.
I was having two .sh scripts to start and stop the digital ocean servers that I wanted to run from the Windows 10. What I did is:
downloaded "Git for Windows" (from https://git-scm.com/download/win).
installed Git
to execute the .sh script just double-clicked the script file it started the execution of the script.
Now to run the script each time I just double-click the script
#!/bin/bash at the top of the file automatically makes the .sh file executable.
I agree the chmod does not do anything but the above line solves the problem.
you can either give the entire path in gitbash to execute it or add it in the PATH variable
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/the/script
then you an run it from anywhere
I am trying to copy a file to remote server in a certain folder.
Its an adrive backup plan. But it comes with scp. I can copy the file if I don't select directory. Even if I put a directory that doesn't exist it says its a directory.
root#host1 [/usr/src]# scp ftpdelete.sh user#host#scp.adrive.com:/mysql-only/
scp: /mysql-only/: Is a directory
Amazingly enough in my case it was that the directory didn't exists!! :|
Is the error message a bug?... or it's me. Tempted for the latter.
SCP doesn't automatically create you new directory if you want to scp file (it creates directory only if you do recursive copy). There is wrong error message. The error should be No such file or directory or similar.
It is known problem and there is upstream bugzilla about this [1].
[1] https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1768
You are copying the sh file to a new directory on the server, and the directory is expected to be there but in fact not(then the machine thinks you want to change the file to be a directory). Most probably the directory you set is wrong.
-r' Recursively copy entire directories. Note that scp follows symbolic links encountered in the tree traversal.
But it doesn't create a directory but you can do below
ssh remote mkdir /diretcory
root#host1 [/usr/src]# scp -r ftpdelete.sh user#host#scp.adrive.com:/complete_path/mysql-only/
or
rsync can do the creating of directory if not exist
its basic command syntax is similar to scp:²
$ rsync -r -e ssh ftpdelete.sh me#my-system:/complete_path/mysql-only/
I saw a similar error, when tried scp to path that relative to home directory. The error fixed after removing unnecessary leading / in path:
# scp ftpdelete.sh user#host#scp.adrive.com:mysql-only/
rather then
# scp ftpdelete.sh user#host#scp.adrive.com:/mysql-only/
^
scp -r source_location user#servername:/target_location
Don't put "/" after the directory's name.
Try to download the file directly to your local root directory and then copy it from there :
root#host1 [/usr/src]# scp user#host:/root/Desktop/file.txt /root/home/
oh so i cd into my folder

What i want to do is zip all the files within this folder then download it to my computer i am really new to ssh and this is a clients website but really want to start to use command line for speed, i have been looking a this reference http://ss64.com/bash/ to find the right commands but would really like some help from somebody please??
Thanks
cd path/to/folder/foldername
zip -r foldername.zip foldername * [use * if it has any sub directory]
Please try this code, it will solve your problem.
If you are in directory itself then
zip -r zipfilename.zip *
Go to folder path using cd command
zip -r foldername.zip foldername
Ex : zip -r test-bkupname.zip test
Here test is the folder name.
tar zcvf ../my_directory.tar.gz .
will create my_directory.tar.gz file.
scp ../my_directory.tar.gz username#your-ip:/path/to/place/file
will transfer file to your computer.
Looks like this is the webroot directory.
Why not zip the directory above (httpdocs / html / whatever) and then move this into the website space, and download from there?
i.e. go into the directory above the web root. For example, if your web root is /var/www/html/ go into /var/www/ and run the following commands:
zip -r allwebfiles.zip html
mv allwebfiles.zip /html/allwebfiles.zip
Then in your web browser go to http://mydomain.com/allwebfiles.zip and just download that file.
When extracting, you'd just need to either extract into /var/www/ OR extract into webroot and move all files up one level.
Use the following Ssh command to download multiple files at one time
mget ./*
