Assuming you copied the file "koha_library.sql.gz" into directory
"/tmp"...
Change to /tmp:
$ cd /tmp
Decompress the file (this will result in file "koha_library.sql"):
$ tar xzf koha_library.sql.gz
Sorry, this is of course wrong! Instead decompress the file like (this
will result in file "koha_library.sql"):
$ gzip -d koha_library.sql.gz
Then continue like I described:
Now load the file:
$ mysql -uroot -p koha_library < koha_library.sql
Be sure you call this command while being in the directory where
"koha_library.sql" resides. Of course also giving the absolute path is
possible:
$ mysql -uroot -p koha_library < /tmp/koha_library.sql
Good luck, Michael
