Dump File MySQL 5.6.10

Question

I was trying to create a dump file from my MySQL database, but when I try it always gives me this error

Operation failed with exitcode 2

Answer 1

I had the same error in MySQL Workbench.

1. Find out where is the mysqldump tools provided by your install of MySQL 5.6. On my mac it was at "usr/local/mysql-5.6.10-osx10.7-x86_64/bin/mysqldump".
2. Then I set up this path in MySQL Workbench/Preferences/Administrator/Path to mysqldump Tool
3. Give MySQL Workbench a restart.

It should work.
