How to get a list of MySQL views?

Question

I\'m looking for a way to list all views in a database.

Initially I found and tried an answer on the MySQL forums:

SELECT table_name
FROM information         


        

Answer 1

Try moving that mysql.bak directory out of /var/lib/mysql to say /root/ or something. It seems like mysql is finding that and it may be causing that ERROR 1102 (42000): Incorrect database name 'mysql.bak' error.
