Re: Errors with Information_Schema in Create Target Results

[Peter Brawley]

You have another instance of MySQL 5.7.18 installed on anther machine?

If so, you'll want to copy the mysqldump file into a convenient folder on the machine where your new MySQL instance is.

Then assuming the file is backup.sql in some_path, invoke mysql client program with your username and password and the show_warnings option ...

mysql -uUSR -PWD --show-warnings

... then type ...

source some_path/backup.sql

(note, no terminating semi-colon).
