Problem restoring database

[eddiev2001]

Hey guys, I've tried to update the zones in my database and then restoring the new sql but it failed and am now getting the following error.

1146 - Table 'dwain_kitchi.configuration' doesn't exist

 

select configuration_key as cfgKey, configuration_value as cfgValue from configuration

 

[TEP STOP]

 

Any ideas or suggestions that will help me restore a previous backup would be greatly appreciated. I now find myself without access to the admin area.

 

Thanks

Eddie :blink:

use phpmyadmin to restore the database.

please, no double posting, it clutters things up and you get multiple answers in different places.

Sorry for the double post , I thought maybe it wasnt as clear and might of caused some confusion.

 

I have tried phpmyadmin , Would you be able to give me step by step instructions ?..

 

I located a backup and FTP it to my local computer where i ran phpmyadmin. I then ran an sql query of the backup

 

what should i do next?

 

 

Thanks for you time and patience . You guys are all really good ! awesome support

if it still fails, means that the backup you made either didnt get restored properly

Would information still be able to be extracted from the db, products and such?

[Guest]

yes, the database could possibly be restored too. it could be that it is just a bit corrupt. as long as the products and customer area is good, piece of cake.
