Hello,
mdb-schema databasename.mdb mysql
FYI
Trying to convert ftp://ftp.nhtsa.dot.gov/manufacture/manufacturer.mdb to mysql
Few error I came across.
1. Your script is not checking from length. It created fields
varchar(501) where in mysql limit is 255.
2. The 'drop table tablename' statement should be "drop table if
exists tablename"
3. table names are not quoted. CREATE TABLE 565 should be CREATE TABLE `565`
4. Column names are not quoted.
CREATE TABLE `565`
(
MFG NAME varchar (255),
should be
CREATE TABLE `565`
(
` MFG NAME` varchar (255),
This also applies to mdb-export while doing insert statement.
5. Not sure if you know this but there is no comma ',' at the end of
each insert statement. which can be added using SED on a fly:
mdb-export -I manufacturer.mdb WMI | sed -e 's/)$/)\;/' |mysql -u
username -p database_name
Other then that the program is great. Thanks for having it. I had to
fix these things manually. It would be nice if that was done inside
the software.
Thanks a lot.
