Thanks for you help ahead. As you can imagine, this is a very critical / urgent issue.

A partner of mine updated their server last night through a yum update. They are running CentOS (not sure on the actual version). In the update, I guess it wiped out their MySQL database. So, they reinstalled MySQL 5.0.37-community, and that is now running. However, we cannot get their InnoDB tables back up and running. I took their old data files, and moved them into the correct spot in the new mysql folder. When I load the database via command, I see the table names (show tables;) but when I select or desc the table it comes back with "ERROR 1033 (HY000): Incorrect information in file: './<databasename>/ <tablename>.frm'."

My my.cnf file is below. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get their data back? Needless to say their last backup was in September. I know, backup, backup, backup ... but now is not the time for telling me the correct practices, procedures, blah blah blah ... I need their data back.

So if someone could please help that would be greatly appreciated.

Again, thanks ahead of time.
