Load a file from UNIX into database
Hi,
I want your help to see if there is a way wherein we can load a set of files which are lying in unix server into my database using sql loader.
Also the person who will be running sql loader does not have access to unix system.
So is there a way i can provide any sql loader script wherein it will connect to unix and uploads the files in database.

mysql_db_query
MYSQL_DB_QUERY(3) 1 MYSQL_DB_QUERY(3)
mysql_db_query - Selects a database and executes a query on it
SYNOPSIS
Warning
This function was deprecated in PHP 5.3.0, and will be removed in the future, along with the entirety of the original MySQL exten-
sion. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more
information. Alternatives to this function include:
omysqli_select_db(3) then the query
o PDO::__construct
resource mysql_db_query (string $database, string $query, [resource $link_identifier = NULL])
DESCRIPTION
mysql_db_query(3) selects a database, and executes a query on it.
o $database
- The name of the database that will be selected.
o $query
- The MySQL query. Data inside the query should be properly escaped.
o $
link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is
assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection
is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated.
Returns a positive MySQL result resource to the query result, or FALSE on error. The function also returns TRUE/ FALSE for INSERT/ UPDATE/
DELETE queries to indicate success/failure.

Example #1
mysql_db_query(3) alternative example
<?php
if (!$link = mysql_connect('mysql_host', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password')) {
echo 'Could not connect to mysql';
exit;
}
if (!mysql_select_db('mysql_dbname', $link)) {
echo 'Could not select database';
exit;
}
$sql = 'SELECT foo FROM bar WHERE id = 42';
$result = mysql_query($sql, $link);
if (!$result) {
echo "DB Error, could not query the database
";
echo 'MySQL Error: ' . mysql_error();
exit;
}
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo $row['foo'];
}
mysql_free_result($result);
?>
Note
Be aware that this function does NOT switch back to the database you were connected before. In other words, you can't use this
function to temporarily run a sql query on another database, you would have to manually switch back. Users are strongly encouraged
to use the database.table syntax in their sql queries or mysql_select_db(3) instead of this function.
mysql_query(3), mysql_select_db(3).
