Hi Chris,
Looks like you may have to either upgrade your current server to the
version the Arch Linux was running or install a second temp server of
that version, export the databases and then import them into the ver 3.2
server.
Personally, I'd look closely at upgrading if at all possible.
Regards

Subject: Importing raw MySQL files
Hi everyone.
I used to run mysql on a local server here, which has some databases
which are very important to me on it. The server was running mysql on
Arch Linux, but unfortunatly this crashed, I was not able to rebuild the
operating system but I was able to recover the raw database files off of
the hard disk. Is there a way of importing these to my MySQL 3.2 server?
(I beleive that Arch Linux was running 5.0). I have tried simply placing
them in the mysql database folder but I get errors such as "Incorrect
information in file: './my0007/ee_pm.frm..." when I try and perform any
operations in PhpMyAdmin.
Any help would be appreciated as I do not want to have to rebuilt the
databases from scratch/
Cheers
Chris
