Issue

  • Example use case: with the below command in the Liferay service, I exported the contents of a Liferay table to a file
mysql -e "select * from User_" > /opt/liferay/users.txt

Now I want to download that file to my local PC so I can inspect it, process it, etc. How can I do that?

Environment

  • Liferay PaaS

Resolution

  • There's no official way of doing that, but you can find a couple of (unsupported) tips/hacks here:
