DBs from Time Machine backup?
Posted: Sun Jul 03, 2022 6:45 pm
Hi all,
running MAMP on MacOS. Accidentally corrupted the DB for a Wordpress site I'm developing. I've been trying all day to bring it back and searching all advice, with no joy. I have a complete Time Machine backup to work from.
The database files are a series of .frm and .ibd files, which I have restored, and also restored the ibdata file.
Can I make a .sql file from these original files and reimport it somehow? Nothing I've tried seems to work, such as directly dropping in the original .frm and .ibd etc files into the MAMP structure.
Any help appreciated!
Tony
