How to restore MySQL dbs
Hello,
I'm using a shell script that takes backup of all the mysql databases of the webserver by using the utility mysqlhotcopy.
The problem is that I'm rookie, and till now I was getting backups from inside the programs/scripts (like from the administration
panels of the forums or portals etc) and the output was always... something.sql.
But the backups i get from my script are folders with files like :
.frm .myd .myi
How do I restore these?
