Moved to a new server

I recently moved to a new server, I backed everything up and moved all my files to my new server. But now all my products are not showing up. Do I need to manually put my products back in or is there a way to import them from MySQL?

Re: Moved to a new server

If you backed up the database using mySQL, you can import it using mySQL.

How??? Is there a script I have to run in MySQL or something?

DrByte ... I already read that FAQ and completed it but it did not get my products back to my store.

Specifically steps 3 and 5 deal directly with your question.

Re: Moved to a new server

Hello,
I have a question:

I have a 1.3.7 live store installed in /domain_name_1/public_html/store which works.

I created a new install (through Fantastico) 1.3.8 cart on another domain name /domain_name_2/public_html/store using the same l o gin.

If I will make backup of 1.3.7 database using "Database Backup My SQL" tool and copy it to 1.3.8 store (similar folder).

Will I be able to use "Restore" from 1.3.8 "Database Backup My SQL" tool to import all setting, products and customers?

Are there any troubles to do this?

Thanks

Yes, that's one way to do it.

Re: Moved to a new server

From which version of MySql to which version of MySql are you trying to move the data?
