Scenario: building a RoR enviroment locally for development. Production is on EngineYard / GitHub. All now working ok, except DB isn't importing.
I have a .sql file that i've taken from my prod EY site. Now i need to import it to my MySQL locally. I'm using Workbench (as i'm new to this), but getting error below.
Please help?
08:07:43 Restoring /home/james/Downloads/Futology.sql Running: mysql --defaults-extra-file="/tmp/tmpAVeE58/extraparams.cnf" --host=localhost --user=root --port=3306 --default-character-set=utf8 --comments < "/home/james/Downloads/Futology.sql" ERROR 1046 (3D000) at line 22: No database selected

Now, we can choose any database. Suppose I am using the database 'business', therefore we can choose with the help of 'use' command. After using database 'business', we can create the above table and we will not get any error.
If the error arises due to not selecting a database, you can easily overcome it by replacing [database_name] with the correct database name in your server. When creating a table statement from the MySQL workbench, you need to select the database to run before executing the statement.
The error no database selected frequently occurs in MySQL when you perform a statement without selecting a database first. You need to replace [database_name] with the name of a database that exists in your MySQL server.
Workbench doesn't know the database (schema) you want to use.
In workbench, when using Data Import/Restore, just below where you choose the file to import, it asks "Default Schema to be Imported To"
Just choose the database (schema) you want it to use from the dropdown titled Default Target Schema. If you don't have a database (schema) already, you can create it with the "New" button.
This is confusing because MySQL generally seems to use the term database but Workbench uses schema. They mean the same thing for most purposes. MySQL 'create schema' and 'create database' - Is there any difference

Not used Workbench too much however it's easy enough to do from command line have a look at this (below phpMyAdmin instructions)
The command you're after is:
mysql -u #username# -p #database# < #dump_file#
