I have a situation wherein our current DB, in MySQL needs to be migrated to SQL Server. For testing purposes, I have a created an RDS instance (SQL Server) on AWS and the connection to it via command line using isql works well. However I have also exported the entire MySQL DB via phpmyadmin in MSSQL compatibility mode and trying to import the same to the SQL Server created above. Whenever I run this command -
isql -v MSSQL user 'password' db_name < path_to_sql
I get this error -
SQL> CREATE TABLE "access_levels" (
[37000][unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'access_levels'.
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLExecute
SQL> "id" int NOT NULL,
[37000][unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near 'id'.
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLExecute
SQL> "user_id" int NOT NULL,

SQL> "brand_id" int NOT NULL,

SQL> );
[37000][unixODBC][FreeTDS][SQL Server]Incorrect syntax near ')'.
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLExecute
The following is a snippet from my sql file for one of the tables
CREATE TABLE "access_levels" (
"id" int NOT NULL,
"user_id" int NOT NULL,
"brand_id" int NOT NULL,
"outlet_id" int NOT NULL,
"feature_id" int NOT NULL,
"access" int NOT NULL,
"created_at" timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
"updated_at" timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00'
);
Relatively new to SQL Server, any help will be appreciated!
