[resolved] restoring db from crashed server
(1/1)
motoislo:
Hello bot masters,
I had bebot v0.4.3 setup using mysql. The computer died and no longer boots, but I have some of the data off the hdd, including all of the bebot files and a copy of the mysql directory.
Is there a way to "import" this data to a new install of mysql on another machine? I do not have a dump file because the computer no longer runs to create one. I installed mysql on the new machine and the bot is working, I just want to restore all the alts, news, ect. that was in the db.
If there is no way without the dump, I guess I can put the hdd (if it works x.x)in another computer and try and get it to boot, then dump the db.
Is that my only option?
Thanks,
Moto
(edit: added resolved to title)

Well the hdd is not bootable. >:(
I am trying to repair the windows install, but I don't know how that will effect the sql already on it. What a day. I just got done rebuilding a carburator and was about to pull off a top end, now im stuck inside working on this mess. :-X

I was able to repair the OS enough to get into sql and create a backup.sql file to restore from. So my problem is solved.
Still wondering if this is the only way to recover a database. So any info would be great.
Also, thanks for bebot and these forums, keep up the good work. ;D
