swanweb Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 HELPPPP!!!!!!!!!! I really need help to backup existing databases on my older server. So i can move them to the new server. My older server was hacked and is now having problems with Cpanel, there is some mysql bug. I can access databases etc using php but not through cpanel. How can i make a complete backup, e.g. take all the sql out so i can implement it into the new server. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhysmeister Posted December 20, 2003 Share Posted December 20, 2003 Use mysqldump... http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysqldump.html This can be used from MySQL to MySQL or any other DB supporting standard SQL. I often simply copy the DB files onto a disk and put them onto the new server manually between my two windows server - with no problems yet. ALthough I am told mysqldump is the preffered way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
