I am using xampp-windows-x64-7.4.16-0-VC15-installer. Does it come with MariaDB, or MySQL?
I get the following, but I am not sure what it means.
C:\Xampp\mysql\bin>mysql --version
mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.4.18-MariaDB, for Win64 (AMD64), source revision 53123dfa3e365138591fd2f160c6057aca00a3e6
The shell shows mariaDB [(none)]>
Please tell me:
1. If it is using MariaDB or MySQL.
2. If it is indeed using MariaDB, how can I change it so that it will use MySQL instead of MariaDB?
3. I am trying to load an older MySQL database into this one and it is not working with command as:
mysql -u root -p mediawikidb < "C:\MySQL\Wikidbbackup-20210416"
The command prompt returns but the database is not getting loaded into mediawwikidb
I am wondering if it has to do with the default database of MariaDB, as the original SQL is from MySQL
