MySQL - Need guidance with some basic stuff -
i'm trying open mysql learning purposes, i'm bit confused.
found dozens of tutorials online, none of them explains basic stuff, instead - explain the syntax of how manipulate information itself.
i'm not interested in that, now.
i use couple of questions:
found everywhere right way open mysql interpreter (is is?) running following command shell:
mysql database_name -h host -u username -p where (and correct me if i'm wrong) 'mysql' interperter, 'database_name' data base want use, host name of server database sits on, , 'username' name of user - client.
- first of all; words "server" , "client" have here anyway? i'm not trying connect anywhere.
- second, files sit on computer (meaning path database-files itself), , how find it?
- is possible have several databases?
- how come command 'mysql' alone (without "database_name -h host -u username -p") opens interpreter me?
thank in advanced.
what words "server" , "client" have here anyway? i'm not trying connect anywhere.
- server name or ip of computer on mysql running
- client name or ip of computer calling mysql server 1 in same.
second, files sit on computer (meaning path database-files itself), , how find it?
- use file located @ c:\program files\mysql\mysql server 5.1\my.ini (or whatever version using) assuming windows.
is possible have several databases?
how come command 'mysql' alone (without "database_name -h host -u username -p") opens interpreter me?
- because it's stand alone application.
