I followed a youtube tutorial for fixing a server issue with MySQL and I pasted all the files from C:\xampp\mysql\backup to C:\xampp\mysql\data. After I reconnected I get the error table table_name doesn't exist in the engine. How do I fix this. thanks in advance

  • You can't. If the table was not in the backup, then you lost the data. – Shadow Jun 23 '21 at 13:16
  • even when pasting with replace? cause the folder with my db is still there – CapBul Jun 23 '21 at 13:18
  • It depends - if the data was in separate data files, then there is still hope. If not, then not. Please, ask only programming related questions on SO, all database admin related questions like this one should be asked on the DBA sister site of SO. – Shadow Jun 23 '21 at 13:25
  • First you have to be sure it does exist, did it exist before the backup was taken? – RiggsFolly Jun 23 '21 at 13:27
  • yes it did and now I have a bunch of .frm and.idb files – CapBul Jun 23 '21 at 13:39
