Hi Hendrik, not sure if you have already received an answer, so please ignore if you are already back on track ;-)
I did not find which OS you are using , but under Linux/Unix you would need to change the ownership back to the user "mysql" and the group "mysql" before you can use the copied data again. Go into your data folder (/var/lib/mysql for an rpm install) and do: chown -R mysql foldername chgrp -R msql foldername That should make them accessable again (assuming MySQL uses the owner and group "mysql".
