Easy Question :

Guys any body knows how to get backup of particular tables
for example all tables starting with phpbb_
into my public_html just using ssh
I need the command

Thanks
 
You can use the mysqldump command to take a backup of that database but I believe with this you cannot select a certain table within a database:

Code: 
[B]mysqldump -IPADDRESS -USERNAME -PASSWORD DATABASENAME > OutputFile Name[/B]
 
Yes Thanks I have seen that but strange thing is that not body seems to know How I can just backup a particular table:confused:
 
Pretty sure I figured it out. Try this:

Code: 
mysqldump --user usernamehere --password=paswordhere databasenamehere tablenamehere > /path/to/directory/to/dump/file/dump.sql

Should do the trick ;)
 
hey thanks but one thing to confirm

it is not one table , it is all tables which is

phpbb2_

what I mean supposing I have 1000 tables related to differenty forum softwares
like smf and bla bla bla
and I want to extract and backup all tables starting with phpbb2_

because I want to take my phpbb forum backup only

what should I do with ssh?

So you mean you only have 1 database and within that database you have thousands of tables for several programs?
 
not thousands LOL but before I get vps I was on a shared hosting and they allowed only one database so I had to install most of my stuffs there that is the problem now I want to extrace some of them from there
on the other hand I want to learn how to do this because some body before asked me the similar question
