 new install cant connect to old databse - 2008/01/06 08:29 Hi all

I ve had to rebuild my machine (win xp) and SC cant connect to my existing database files

before the rebuild I took a copy of the DB files in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Simese\MySQL and then copied them back when I installed the new verion of SC

SC knows the databse exists but it only shows the default catagories etc

is there anyway to link to the existing databse files or do I have to create a new database and rebild everything from scratch?

cheers

Mike

 Re: new install cant connect to old databse - 2008/01/08 02:58 Did you copy the 'ibdata1' file too? Unfortunately I don't know much about the file-handling of MySQL and if it's save to copy old files or you'll need to backup and restore the database.

Hi Mike,

I'm about to do the same thing, did you ever solve the problem you described here and do you have any good tips for me before I start to reinstall my PC?

Thanks in advance!
