WampServer

After reinstalling, try to create a new test database and look for the new folder to locate the folder where MySQL actually stores its db files and folders. As for "ibdata" and "iblogfiles", I copied them back too. One last hint, don't try to restore the lost data while mysql daemon (service) is running. Stop the mysql service, close WAMP entirely and then check it in the Proc

Thanks for your reply. I have just solved the problem and the database is now correctly restored. I had copied the original db files to a wrong location (to "wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.45\data" instead of "wamp\mysql\data" which is correct path). H.

After reinstalling WAMP5 1.7.4 which contains MySQL 5.0.45, I lost all my mysql data (forgot to do mysqldump before reinstalling). However, I have copies of files that contain all the data I lost (*.myd, *.myi, *.frm ...). Is it possible to recover the data using those files? I tried to copy them back to the proper directory after reinstallation (wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.45), but it didn't help
