Re: MySQL Lost 3 Weeks of Data
Michael, check all your connectivity settings (host and port) of all of the software that you use (backup scripts for example) especially if you connect via tcp/ip instead of via sockets. Check the error log, too. Did you move something on January, 20th (database)? From our own experiences it sounds to me it is most likely a failure in the human interface but I may be totally wrong. Good Luck! Regards, Frank. Schmuck, Michael schrieb: Hello I've got a big problem. My MySQL server has yesterday lost data since 20th january. Fact, we got a daily tape backup.

What do you mean: he loaded the old files and lost everything newer than 20th. Did he restore from a backup tape? If so, then it's probably a problem with your backup system not properly backing up the mysql tables. While the Mysql process is running, the files are in-use by Mysqld, and many tape-backup programs cannot properly copy files that are in-use. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: MySQL Lost 3 Weeks of Data
First and foremost, your English is not even remotely bad! You should hear half of my native-English speaking friends! Can you give us some more information, such as the server configuration, OS, filesystem, MySQL version, table types in use, table size, size of the data gone missing, backup methods and anything else worthy of note (forms of logical volume management, impatient users that reboot servers because they can't look at www.insert terrible site here.com due to proxy/firewall restrictions)?
