Moving mysql database from MAC to Windows problem
I have to move a database from a MAC with MYSQL to Windows.
The MAC has MYSQL 4.0.18 loaded.
The phpmyadmin is not working on MAC machine so I tried to just copy the database files to the Windows machine mysql 4.0.21
After this mysql crashes when I try to open the databases with phpmyadmin.
A popup window appears and called DBUG Test signal Confirming this message causes mysql to fail.
In my phpmyadmin it get the message server not responding.
I also tried to recreate the empty tables on the Windows machine and just copy the .MYD and .MYI files into the Windows machine, leaving the .frm files. This worked on some tables but on others I have corrupted data in it and some tables are shown as in use.
The MAC mysql database does have 2 files that the Windows doesn't. ._.DS_Store and ._DS_Store.
Are the MYSQL files for those 2 system not compatible? If not How can I convert the database files? The database is still working on the MAC so I do not think the database is corrupt. My problem is that I do not have any experience with the MAC system
Thanks for any help
