Describe the bug

When exporting a view that uses a WITH RECURSIVE common table expression (CTE) from phpMyAdmin, the RECURSIVE keyword is omitted in the exported SQL file. This omission results in an invalid SQL script that fails during import.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a view in phpMyAdmin using the following SQL with a WITH RECURSIVE CTE:
CREATE VIEW number_sequence_view AS
WITH RECURSIVE number_sequence AS (
    SELECT 1 AS number
    UNION ALL
    SELECT number + 1
    FROM number_sequence
    WHERE number < 5
)
SELECT * FROM number_sequence;
  1. Export the view using phpMyAdmin.
  2. Open the exported SQL file and inspect the contents.

Expected behavior

The exported SQL file should contain the full SQL script including the WITH RECURSIVE keyword to ensure the view can be correctly imported into another MySQL instance.

Actual Behavior

The exported SQL file omits the RECURSIVE keyword, resulting in an incomplete SQL script that cannot be used to recreate the view.
