Re: how to import mysql database using java

[Todd Farmer]

Hi,

Maybe changing your exception handling to print the stack trace would help identify the root cause:

e.printStackTrace();

I tried a variant of the command you issued, and found my Exception caused by incorrectly giving the path to the mysql executable (mine is not in global PATH). The stack trace should help identify the root cause.

I'll note that it's generally not a good plan to process SQL scripts via shell calls like that from Java.

Hope that helps.
