If you accidentally delete the entire Mysql database....

Is there a way to get it back?

Can someone just make a dump of theirs and you restore yours via the dump?

If so... would someone mind doing that for me?

edit: By 'entire mysql database' I literally mean just the one titled mysql.. not realmd, not mangos, etc.. just 'mysql'.

If your able to backup your databases you currently have and then reinstall the SQL server. The MySQL table stores all the data about users who can connect to your DB, their permissions and logs etc, so basically somebody elses would probably not work well with yours and end up with a ton of errors.

If you mean MySQL.bat then just restore it from Recycle bin.
If you don't have it check Hellgawds compile thread and download the MySQL server.
If you deleted the content of your DB just reinstall it from where ever you got it from.

If you read the post you would of seen that he said the MySQL database and for future reference not all SQL servers have a MySQL.bat file, some run from services/windows.

Thanks guys, when I try to backup my other databases by SQL dumps, I get an error about missing files or something such as mysql.tables.

Another user was kind enough to share a dump of their mysql database, but that just gave me a different error. They recommended I uninstall/reinstall mysql. I'll do that.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
