workaround for mysqlhotcopy with non-alphanumerics in db_name
Posted by: tom worster

I've got MySQL 5.1.59 and I cannot backup a database if its name has a dash (or anything from [^a-zA-Z0-9_]) in it.

The bug was introduced I think in 5.1.6 and not fixed until 5.5.something.

Is there any workaround?

Upgrading to 5.5 is not an option for this system because a bug in 5.5 breaks certain queries.
