Re: [gentoo-user] Re: mysql no longer working :-(
... If you still have a copy of your old databases and you stick with myisam tables Try to: - stop mysql (check it with ps fax after) - copy the old /var/lib/mysql/mysql dir into /var/lib/mysql/mysqlold - copy the remaing databases in /var/lib/mysql/ - start mysql Now you could play with your old tables pheraps Good luck I had to reinitialise phpmyadmin (of course!) because the data in the old database was no longer there!

[gentoo-user] Re: mysql no longer working :-(
This is most annoying! I have not modified anything (though have been trying to install rt and some other trouble ticket systems) but it seems pretty dead. A remerge did nothing. I ended up getting rid of the databases I had before (including one that rt tried to create) and reinitialised with the ebuild config command. Now I have it working... but for some reason phpmyadmin doesn't work anymore. It asks me for a username and password but won't accept a valid username.
