Help me clean my database by following this tutorial

you can run those commands using putty/ssh just after login to your linux server where mysql database is running...but don't copy paste the whole command...change the parameter like username,password,dbname, u can also specify location for backup file. mysqldump --opt --default-character-set=latin1 --skip-extended-insert --user my_db_user_here --password my_db_name_here -r exp-my-database-latin1.sql --log-error=log-mysqldump-my-database.txthere,
my_db_user_here=your database login user name ex-root
my_db_name_here=put the database name you want to take backup as .sql file

hope this will help you

regards,
