Stellar Phoenix MySQL database recovery

You can use Stellar Phoenix Database Recovery for MySQL to repair your corrupt InnoDB database. Note that you should place the corresponding 'ibdata' file in the same folder that contains the database. The software allows you to perform selective recovery of database objects, i.e. you can recover specific objects in your MySQL database and save them to a desired location in the system.

To do this, select the database to be recovered through the software and begin the scan process. After completion of the scan, choose the desired objects that you need to recover and specify a destination to save the recovered file. You can now use the new database to access all the recovered MySQL objects.

Yes, Software repairs MySQL database that is created on the Linux platform. To do this, you need to copy databases from your Linux system to a Windows system and then perform recovery on the Windows platform. Follow the procedure as described below:

Note: MySQL should be installed on your Windows system and there should be sufficient free space (at least same as the size of the selected databases) on the drive containing the MySQL databases to be recovered.

• Copy the database folders and the ‘ibdata1’ file from ‘\var\lib\MySQL’ directory in your Linux system.
• Paste the copied database folders and ‘ibdata1’ file to any drive on your Windows-based computer.
• Run the software to recover these databases through the manual selection method, i.e. via ‘Manual selection of databases for recovery’ option.
• Copy the recovered database folders and ibdata1 stored in your Windows system and paste the same to ‘\var\lib\MySQL’ directory in your Linux system.

The software saves the recovered databases in a new folder at the same location where the original database is stored. The new folder is named as ‘Recovered_databasename’, where databasename is the name of your original MySQL database.
