这是我所使用的:

$ mysqldump -u root -p olddb >~/olddb.sql
$ mysql -u root -p
mysql> create database newdb;
mysql> use newdb
mysql> source ~/olddb.sql
mysql> drop database olddb;

简单的方法

ALTER DATABASE `oldName` MODIFY NAME = `newName`;

或者你可以使用在线SQL生成器

ALTER DATABASE是MySQL建议的解决方法，RENAME DATABASE被删除。

从13.1.32 RENAME数据库语法:

RENAME {DATABASE | SCHEMA} db_name TO new_db_name;

此语句是在MySQL 5.1.7中添加的，但被发现是危险的，在MySQL 5.1.23中被删除。

TodoInTX的存储过程不太适合我。以下是我的尝试:

-- stored procedure rename_db: Rename a database my means of table copying.
-- Caveats: 
-- Will clobber any existing database with the same name as the 'new' database name.
-- ONLY copies tables; stored procedures and other database objects are not copied.
-- Tomer Altman (taltman@ai.sri.com)

delimiter //
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS rename_db;
CREATE PROCEDURE rename_db(IN old_db VARCHAR(100), IN new_db VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
    DECLARE current_table VARCHAR(100);
    DECLARE done INT DEFAULT 0;
    DECLARE old_tables CURSOR FOR select table_name from information_schema.tables where table_schema = old_db;
    DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR NOT FOUND SET done = 1;

    SET @output = CONCAT('DROP SCHEMA IF EXISTS ', new_db, ';'); 
    PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
    EXECUTE stmt;

    SET @output = CONCAT('CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS ', new_db, ';');
    PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
    EXECUTE stmt;

    OPEN old_tables;
    REPEAT
        FETCH old_tables INTO current_table;
        IF NOT done THEN
        SET @output = CONCAT('alter table ', old_db, '.', current_table, ' rename ', new_db, '.', current_table, ';');
        PREPARE stmt FROM @output;
        EXECUTE stmt;

        END IF;
    UNTIL done END REPEAT;

    CLOSE old_tables;

END//
delimiter ;

可以将一个数据库中的所有表重命名为另一个数据库下的所有表，而不必执行完整的转储和恢复。

DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS mysql.rename_db;
DELIMITER ||
CREATE PROCEDURE mysql.rename_db(IN old_db VARCHAR(100), IN new_db VARCHAR(100))
BEGIN
SELECT CONCAT('CREATE DATABASE ', new_db, ';') `# create new database`;
SELECT CONCAT('RENAME TABLE `', old_db, '`.`', table_name, '` TO `', new_db, '`.`', table_name, '`;') `# alter table` FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = old_db;
SELECT CONCAT('DROP DATABASE `', old_db, '`;') `# drop old database`;
END||
DELIMITER ;

$ time mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('db1', 'db2');" | mysql -uroot

然而，目标db中的任何触发器都不会开心。您需要先删除它们，然后在重命名后重新创建它们。

mysql -uroot -e "call mysql.rename_db('test', 'blah2');" | mysql -uroot
ERROR 1435 (HY000) at line 4: Trigger in wrong schema

在从包含多个数据库的转储文件开始的情况下，您可以对转储执行sed:

sed -i -- "s|old_name_database1|new_name_database1|g" my_dump.sql
sed -i -- "s|old_name_database2|new_name_database2|g" my_dump.sql
...

然后导入您的转储。只要确保没有名称冲突即可。
