1046 no database selected как исправить

Error
SQL query:

--
-- Database: `work`
--
-- --------------------------------------------------------
--
-- Table structure for table `administrators`
--
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `administrators` (

`user_id` varchar( 30 ) NOT NULL ,
`password` varchar( 30 ) NOT NULL ) ENGINE = InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET = latin1;

MySQL said:

#1046 - No database selected

need some help here.

Assuming you are using the command line:

1. Find Database

show databases;

2. Select a database from the list

e.g. USE classicmodels; and you should be off to the races! (Obviously, you’ll have to use the correctly named database in your list.

Why is this error occurring?

Mysql requires you to select the particular database you are working on. I presume it is a design decision they made: it avoids a lot of potential problems: e.g. it is entirely possible, for you to use the same table names across multiple databases e.g. a users table. In order to avoid these types of issues, they probably thought: “let’s make users select the database they want”.

be careful about blank passwords

mysqldump [options] -p '' --databases database_name

will ask for a password and complain with mysqldump: Got error: 1046: "No database selected" when selecting the database

the problem is that the -p option requires that there be no space between -p and the password.

mysqldump [options] -p'' --databases database_name

solved the problem (quotes are not needed anymore).

Check you have created the database first which you want.

If you have not created the dataBase you have to fire this query:

CREATE DATABASE data_base_name

If you have already created the database then you can simply fire this query and you will be able to create table on your database:

CREATE TABLE `data_base_name`.`table_name` (
 _id int not null,
 LastName varchar(255) NOT NULL,
 FirstName varchar(255),
 Age int,
 PRIMARY KEY (_id)
);

Solution with an Example

• Error 1046 occurs when we miss to connect our table with a database. In this case, we don’t have any database and that’s why at first we will create a new database and then will instruct to use that database for the created table.

# At first you have to create Database 
CREATE DATABASE student_sql;

# Next, specify the database to use
USE student_sql;

# Demo: create a table 
CREATE TABLE student_table(
    student_id INT PRIMARY KEY,
    name VARCHAR(20),
    major VARCHAR(20)
);

# Describe the table 
describe student_table;

first select database : USE db_name

then creat table:CREATE TABLE tb_name
(
id int,
name varchar(255),
salary int,
city varchar(255)
);

this for mysql 5.5 version syntax

I’m late i think :] soory,

If you are here like me searching for the solution when this error occurs with mysqldump instead of mysql, try this solution that i found on a german website out there by chance, so i wanted to share with homeless people who got headaches like me.

So the problem occurs because the lack -databases parameter before the database name

So your command must look like this:

mysqldump -pdbpass -udbuser --databases dbname

Another cause of the problem in my case was that i’m developping on local and the root user doesn’t have a password, so in this case you must use --password= instead of -pdbpass, so my final command was:

mysqldump -udbuser --password= --databases dbname

In Amazon RDS, merely writing use my-favorite-database does not work if that database’s name includes dashes. Furthermore, none of the following work, either:

use "my-favorite-database"
use `my-favorite-database`
use 'my-favorite-database'

Just click the “Change Database” button, select the desired database, and voilà.

Although this is a pretty old thread, I just found something out. I created a new database, then added a user, and finally went to use phpMyAdmin to upload the .sql file. total failure. The system doesn’t recognize which DB I’m aiming at…

When I start fresh WITHOUT first attaching a new user, and then perform the same phpMyAdmin import, it works fine.

Сперва выберите (создайте, если надо) БД, в которую вы осуществляете импорт.

Re: ошибка #1046 – No database selected

Нужно слева в списке выбрать базу данных нажав на нее если она уже создана и лишь после импортировать файл имябазы.sql
Либо если там ее нет то создать, выбрать нажав на нее и лишь после импортировать файл с базой данных.
Так же если на хостинге разрешена лишь одна база данных с большим количеством мб, а сайтов можно создать более одного, два,  три и больше то ты просто меняешь либо добавляешь другой префикс к примеру на первый сайт префикс  ya_  на второй ti_  и в той же базе можешь повесить не один сайт c одной базой данных, с учетом если позволяет размер выделенный на базу хостером.
