I've killed my database

Don't ask me why, but i've managed to destroy my database, and was stoopid enough not to keep an upto date back up of it. I dropped the contents of some tables and now the site won't work.

 

Basically what I want is a way of getting all the new account info from the old one and move it into the new store

Do you mean 'customer' information?

 

And if your database is 'killed', are you sure the customer information still exists?

I'm not sure it exists, but i think it still does.

 

All I hav done is drop info from one of the tables. Other than that the data is still in there. All I need to do is to get the names, addresses, e-mail addresses from the old site to insert it into the new site.

Well, first you should use 'phpmyadmin' to dump the data from the customers table, and then use the same tool connected to your new database to 'import' the dump.

 

If you are using a webhost, and are on cpanel, it should come with phpmyadmin installed already. IF not, that's another *must have* piece of saftware you'll need to administer your oscommerce cart.

Excellent, thanks for the help.

 

I've also dumped and then re inserted the customers_info tables

 

The only problem I have now is when I try to edit (so I can see the address details) i get this error
