Hi all,
A customer created a database (through an installer for a support system) but this database does not appear in the MySQL Admin overview. This means that the customer can't make / restore a backup of this database.
a) is it possible that a database is created but does not get picked up in the mysql admin page? (it seems a rhetorical question, but has anyone else experienced this?)
b) Is it possible to make this database visible in the MySQL admin overview (and how)?
One option I was considering was to move the table away, create a new one with the same name and then overwrite the new db with the old files. I am a bit hestitant because I don't particularly like experimenting with customer's data files.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
