Gidday, I installed and had running phpwebsite until when I deactivated a module it crashed and burned.

 

Luckily the db is intract. I also have db backups. I installed a new phpwebsite front end and directed it to my existing db. Thus I have 2 sets of tables in the 1 db, as in say mod_calendarevents and mod_mod_calendarevents being the old and the new tables. All tables are named this way, mod_something and the new tables mod_mod_something.

 

How can I put the old mod_something into the new mod_mod_something tables that my phpwebsite now recognises? Or can I somehow tell phpwebsite to read the older mod_mod_something tables?

 

Im guessing to move the old into the new and rename them if necessary.

 

Any advice would be a help.

 

Regrads, Wayne

Not familiar with the package you're using, but is there a configure.php (or similar) file that tells it which database to use?

 

Alternatively, PHPMyAdmin will allow you to create a "dump" of the data you want to keep and then import it to your new set of tables - just make sure you've some backups first woooot

 

Hope that helps,
