How can I extract the databases from raw files?
My hard drive was dying, so the only way to grab my MySQL databases was to backup the entire folder.
I've got all the databases under the mysql folder, but now I'm at a loss as to what I should do with them.
I've reinstalled the OS on a new hard drive, should I reinstall MySQL and simply paste the files in the same location they were previously?
Or is there an alternative (better) way to do this?
