mysql dumpfile restore proble

[shah]

hi every one.

I have a mysql dump file which was made in phpmyadmin. now i want to import it using mysql.

 

i write the following command in mysql command line

 

mysql> mysql -u 'arif' -p 'Ericsson' 'booktorn_simplenotefreetag' < 'booktorn_si
mplenotefreetag.sql';

The error that i get is the following.

 

ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that

corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'mysql

-u 'arif' -p 'Ericsson' 'booktorn_simplenotefreetag' < 'booktorn_simplenot' at

line 1

 

I would appreciate if some one could help me with an example or could tell me where am i making the mistake.

 

Thank you

i even tried to remove the single quotes like below

 

mysql> mysql -u 'arif' -p 'Ericsson' 'booktorn_simplenotefreetag' < 'booktorn_simplenotefreetag.sql';

 

but no use.  ???

Why are you quoting the filenames?
