A simple way of doing this is to make a backup/dump of the mysql db on the original host and copy it over to the new host, then import this backup/dump in the mysql server there (this implies you have mysql already installed of course).
Dump of db can be something like this:
Import the db on the other node:
Dump of db can be something like this:
mysqldump -u root -p --opt dbname > dbname.sql
Import the db on the other node:
mysql -u root -p dbname < /path/to/dbname.sql
you can also use some relevant tools (depends on your environment, like Windows/Linux, etc) to export the data (with options) from the old server into a .sql file and then use the same tool to connect to new server, and execute the .sql file accordingly.
For Windows base, you can try use mysql workbench

I'm still looking for the mysql password as I can't find it in the handover list.
With the current physical file, (*.MYD, *.MYI), is it possible to copy them into another server and link them through some way ?

Well yes, it is possible to copy them over to another system and even possible to access them via MySQL again, but you might need to set the necessary permissions (eg: GRANT) on the database as well as set the correct permissions on the files once you copied them to the database directory (using chown mysql:mysql for example).
Also, you should look if you have the *.FRM file as well.

I don't have a direct example for doing this no... It works something like this:
1. Make sure you have MySQL installed on the new server (at least same version, newer is possible to)
2. copy the necessary files over to the new server (.myd, .myi, .frm), put them in the /var/lib/mysql/dbname folder for example.
3. Change the permissions on the files (chown -R mysql:mysql /var/lib/mysql/dbname)
4. This should make the db/table available in MySQL
5. Set the necessary user/permissions inside MySQL (eg:
Something like this should get you there, no garantees given naturally, this is possible, but it's still not best practice I should say.

Get the password and backup the database to a tsql file.
Restore on another server, but pop out the errors after running for a while..
MySQL server has gone away.

Sorry, I don't quite understand your last post. You found the password to your MySQL server and could make a dump of your db?
Yes, and restore on another MySQL DB using your previous command. It run for a while and stop with the message "MySQL server has gone away. "
I have also physically stopped the mysql on the source server and physically copy the individual files on the destination server. Afterwards, I restart the mysql service. However, I have two files that I have the following error:
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'cms.path_c' doesn't exist
I have also run mysqlcheck but it can't fix it. Any advise ? Tks

The sql dump file you have, that you want to import, is it large?
To try and resolve the issue you can try 2 things:
1. Adjust the "wait_timeout" setting in /etc/mysql/my.cnf (or wherever it is on your system) to a higher setting, eg: if it is set to 600 sec, set it to 1200 sec, or something like that.
2. Adjust the "max_allowed_packet" in /etc/mysql/my.cnf to a higher value, eg: if the setting now is 32MB, make it 64MB.
After changing these settings restart mysql.

I can't find these two parameters, where should it be added, under [client], [mysql] or [mysqld] ?
