Already tried. You need to have two functioning database servers to use it. It will not read the ism files directly.. If I had a functioning (3.23 or 4.0) data base server that could read the ism tables, I would just mysqldump the data out of them. And read the dump file into 5.0.

If I am mistaken on this belief, please correct me. When I ran the migration tool it kept asking for a source database server. I am still seeking resolution to this problem.

If someone has a zip of 3.23 or 4.0 MySQL server, I would appreciate getting access to that file?

Try the Windows GUI toolset from MySQL and use the Migration toolkit application. I think that tool was made for those situations.

I have to recover some data out of old ism mysql tables and I don't have a version of MySQL which can access those tables. I also can't seem to find out how to convert those old tables to myi table format. Does anyone know a tool or have access to the windows binary install of 3.23 or 4.0 MySQL?

The typical:
ALTER TABLE phpbb_users TYPE = MYISAM

*MySQL said: *Documentation <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/error-returns.html>

| #1030 - Got error 1 from storage engine

Gives me no results.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
