Leverkusen Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Is it possible to save history of all my tables from my other site and copy all those history into my new one? I have milions of posts at my site, but since im moving to other one which is a free host, i want to have all those history. I can easily copy main structure but i have like millions of posts and i want to keep them all.

QuickOldCar Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 If is really large can copy the mysql data files themselves and overwrite in new site. In linux or debian based such as ubuntu is located in /var/lib/mysql/ Each database will have it's own folder, it's table will have multiple files. Windows based is usually C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7 or simply C:\mysql, depends where mysql was installed. If a table is corrupt use the repair function http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/repair-table.html REPAIR TABLE table_name QUICK; If this for some reason it fails try use_frm to repair the myi file REPAIR TABLE table_name USE_FRM; I've done huge databases this way and works much better and faster than exporting and importing large sql files. Edit: I noticed you said free host which limits the folders can access, may need to export and import each table with a sql file. Database management programs such as phpmyadmin can do this.
