WampServer

I had to reinstall windows after I upgraded some computer hardware so I had to reinstall windows. I have the folder that WAMP had prior to the reinstall but I haven't been able to figure out how to get the private wiki that I had made to function again. I dont care about the formatting of what I had done on that wiki I just care about the information that I had filled it with. Is there anyway to recover the info in this wiki or to reinstall it to what it was previously?

If you have a backup of the old wamp folder it is possible to restore your old database if it was a MYISAM db

You can actually just create a new database with the same name as before and then copy all the files from the old wamp/bin/mysql/mysql.x.y.z/data/database_name folder
into the new folder created when you create the database via mysqladmin.


Make sure you copy all the files and probably a good idea to do a repair on them before trying to use them.

Hope this helps
