Just use the fabulous command REPLACE provided by mysql. The syntax goes like this:
update database_table set table_column = replace (table_column, "oldstring", "newstring");
For instance, to replace all occurrences of “modules” inside the linuxformat.gr drupal db with “sites/all/modules” I typed in:
update linuxformat_system set filename = replace (filename, "modules", "sites/all/modules");
