I want to copy table contained from one database and insert onto another database table

Question

I want to copy a table\'s schema as well as the data within that table to another database table in another database on a live server. How could I do this?

Answer 1

CREATE TABLE db2.table_new AS SELECT * FROM db1.table_old

Answer 2

In BASH you can do:

mysqldump database_1 table | mysql database_2

Answer 3

simply use -

CREATE TABLE DB2.newtablename SELECT * FROM DB1.existingtablename;

Answer 4

In Commandline:

mysqldump -h localhost -u username -ppassword [SCHEMA] --tables [TABLE] | mysql -h otherhost -u username -ppassword [SCHEMA2]

This will copy table inside SCHEMA on localhost to SCHEMA2 on otherhost.

localhost and otherhost are just hostname and might be same or different.
