Question

MySQL

I try several times to restore the database table, but nothing comes up

[email protected]:/home/fapchat/Desktop/papka/backups of mysql# mysql -u fapchat -p1111 -D publications < accounts.sql

MariaDB [publications]> describe accounts;
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'publications.accounts' doesn't exist

Database recovered normally

Answer 1

The table already exists.
Rename it and roll the dump.
Think about whether you need data from the old one?
Need - somehow smerzhi data and delete the old one.
No - delete the old one immediately.

Answer 2

And what's in the file for 800 bytes then?
