    i dont know what he's upto too.
    well he just me
    3 files and a folder containing .frm files.
    As much it seems he just copied his whole server up and now he deleted his instance...

    tables are innodb probably and he needs a sql dump from those files
    send me a pm if this was not solved yet

  • .frm is myisam, you should be able to associate these with a new MySQL installation and read from them.

    ibdata1, logfile0 and logfile1 are structure files; it's not really possible to restore data from them without the associated tables.

    I can try... But that'll take quite a few time.

    both statements are wrong. frm is table definition file, it is used for both MyISAM and InnoDB

    ibdata is used to store actual data in case file_per_table is set to 0
