Thanks Peter, Yes I did not the character set was different so I tried your suggestion: First I tried: alter database my_database character set = 'utf8'; I tried the import again and I still got missing rows. Then I tried: drop database my_database; create database myw_database character set = 'utf8'; Again, I tried the import and I still got missing rows. Also tried stopping and restarting the mariadb daemon and did the import again to no avail. E. On 8/19/20 5:27 AM, Peter McLarty wrote:
Hi I suspect you've got some utf data in your MySQL and it's being excluded with the Latin1 character set. Try creating your MariaDB database with UTF8 as it's character set.
Cheers Peter

Sending this again because I got no response the first time and didn't know if it was because I did something wrong protocol wise or if it was just because no one had any idea on what my issue could be.
If anyone has a link they can point me to in either case it would be greatly appreciated. I will keep searching as well.
Thanks

Hello All,
New to the list, so maybe an expert has the easy answer to this one...
When I use mysqldump to backup a MySQL 5.7.8 database then import that database into a MariaDB 10.4.8 database, at least one (maybe more) of the imported tables is missing rows. This is a WordPress database and the table in question is the *wp_options* table. I'm only getting 29 rows imported when there should be over 600 (in the original MySQL database).
I'm using the *mysqldump* and *mysql* utilities located on the MariaDB server:
mysqldump Ver 10.17 Distrib 10.4.8-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.4.8-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1
My steps as performed on the MariaDB server (the server I'm importing to).
1. mysqldump -u username -pPassword -h remote_mysql_server database_name > wp_backup.sql
2.mysql -u username -pPassword -h localhost database_name < wp_backup.sql
_* *_
When I run *mysql* (on the local MariaDB server) and import the wp_backup.sql to the remote_mysql_server everything works fine and all rows are importing into a test database out there_*:*_
mysql -u username -pPassword -h remote_mysql_server database_name < wp_backup.sql
So the above works
I know I'm probably missing something simple but just don't know... they both seem to use the same InnoDB engine. I did notice the Db character set is different between the databases though (highlighted in blue below).
Maybe do I need to upgrade to MariaDB *10.4.14*
Any help would be greatly appreciated.....?
