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

Re: Moved to a new server

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?
