Hard drive failed but I have a backup of the files on antoher drive. I created new database with the same exact name then I copied all files inside /var/lib/mysql/database_name to the new folder. It didn't work, anyone know how to make the database work? I tried repairing it to no avail.
View 2 RepliesI recently had a harddrive failure and luckliy I can still access certain directories on this failed drive. I can still access the /var/lib/mysql/ directory which holds all the users databases and have backed all these up separately using tar.
Now what I need to know is how do you restore these database files to another server? I tried simply untar'ing one of these to the new servers /var/lib/mysql/ direcotry and it stuffed Mysql up - it went offline. I had to get a cpanel tech to bring Mysql back online.
how can I get these database files to fully work on a new server?

I have a new customer moving from another host. His account was terminated already, so just have backup file. When restoring his mysql database, I have this error
Quote:
Unable to restore database dbname.sql to agesuke_forum : ERROR at line 521 in file: '/backup/dbname.sql': Unknown command ''.
Googling shows error in version < 5.0.6 but we are using 5.1.35 already. Is there any idea to fix? This account will run on CentOS 5 - 64bits, FYI.
I need to get the h3ll away from Godaddy, fast!
However, my site has a large MySQL database (200 megabytes) and it's impossible to backup or restore via phpMyadmin. Godaddy has a feature on their control panel, where you can restore/backup your MySQL database to a special diretory on your web http file space, which you can upload/download vis FTP. I use this alot.
Is there any other web hosting company that offers such a feature? I haven't seen this anywhere except on Godaddy.
As to why I need to get away from Godaddy:
Basically what they did was, my site was getting too much traffic (even though it's still well under Godaddy's advertised limits for that plan)... so they sent me an email that says:
"Your site is using too much server resources. We have moved you to a new server to protect our other customers. Please identify steps to reduce your site traffic and contact us."
They moved my site to what is, apparently, a punishment area (Godaddy Hell) where all the high volume sites go. It is so extremely slow, my site might as well not exist... it is inaccessible to my visitors for all intents and purposes.
I have a corrupted VPS, and have some mysql databases on it.
I want to backup databases and restore them on the new server.
Cpanel service is down on the vps and I cannot transfer accts.
Is it possible to do so ?
1- Zip or Tar the username folder in /home dir.
2- zip or tar the database name in /var/lib/mysql folder
Either by SSH or File manager trough HyperVM
Then transfer files some where safe...
When vps is rebuilt, restore the archives and databases to
the folders I have backed up before rebuilt.
There are also some accounts on a terminated vps that there is only an image of the vps available so, I only can tar files using a jailed shell account, move to the new vps and untar them.
how to do it and avoid database problems.
For some odd reason, I don't see the mysql folder inside /backup/cpbackup/daily/server/
It contains .sql files of the databases associated with that account. On other accounts, I see the mysql folder. Just this one is missing.
It used to be there and I see the mysqldump command running while cpbackup is running.
I have some server with OS: CentOS 5.x
one day, I have to replicate 2 servers together. so, I have to stop webserver and use MySQL Administrator GUI Tool to backup it. My steps follow: (i work directly on Server 2 and i wantna to use mysql administrator gui to monitor and config replication).
1. Server 2: ssh to server 1-> connect mySQL -> add any host to root access
2. Server 2: use mySQL Administrator connect to server 1 with root
3. Server 2: backup from server 1 on Desktop location
4. Server 2: Restore it use mysql administrator tool.
It works well but when i click Restore button, MySQL Administrator GUI Tool disappear!
What's problem with this tools or server 2?
I have Plesk Windows version, when I want import my backup mysql, i see below error:
Error: dbbackup failed: Unable to restore database 'admin_IranDnn'
ERROR 2006 (HY000) at line 1: MySQL server has gone awayClick to expand...
Would like to know what are the dangers of backing up and restoring full entire system backups (with plesk installed) to another server with a different ip address? Will the restored plesk setup operate properly and offer an ip address change in the system, or will there be any pre-requisites required such as manual ip changing within the system core files?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn my VPS I would like to set the /tmp folder to 777 and point to it with session.save_path.
The VPS will host a number of sites, but I will have sole control of them. ie. the account holders will not have access to cpanel.
If it makes any difference, the server is running phpSUexec.
What are the risks involved with this?
I have two servers.
One server has a folder named 'vidfiles' and I want to transfer this entire folder (all 70gigs) to another server I just got.
Both servers are linux and use CPanal/whm.
What would be the command to get the files to transfer direct from server to server?
Since my /var partition is full, so I moved /var/lib/mysql to /backup/mysql/.
Seems all the files are copied and I changed my.cnf reboot mysql, but all the web sites using db is not working anymore..
I installed the MySQL binary packages in /usr/local/mysql/ after removing the MySQL RPM package. MySQL is functioning when I executed /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysqld. I reinstalled MySQL before I installed PHP. When I used a PHP script to access a MySQL database, it outputs an error:
Code:
Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [function.mysqli-mysqli]: (HY000/2002): can't connect to local mysql server through socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock in index.php on line 2
However, I installed MySQL in /usr/local/mysql, not in /var/lib/mysql. How do I fix MySQL?
I uploaded a .gz file that contains an sql file and was curious to know how I can restore it into a database via SSH.

I need to restore a deleted VPS. Problem is that another VPS was created right after the VPS was deleted. This is on a Xen hypervm slave.
I tried running vgcfgrestore -f /etc/lvm/archive/VolGroup00_01381.vg VolGroup00
but its not bringing back the files.
Any ideas at all at on how to recover? Is this even possible? I just need to salvage some files from /home from the old setup.
Perhaps delete the new VPS and then do a restore?
