I'm using the command

 

mysql -u root -p -h localhost database_name < sqlfile_name.sql

 

but it doesn't do anything. It doesn't throw any errors, etc. It's quite a large file (270MB), could that be an issue?

 

mysql -V gives: "mysql  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.90, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.1"

 

Thanks for any help :)

Also, forgot to mention- using phpMyAdmin isn't an option as I have a single table that is over 50MB (my file upload limit), and I've tried using BigDump but I get an error "UNEXPECTED: Can't read the file pointer offset" that I can't seem to solve. Also, the database I'm importing into is completely empty.
