Same deal.Claims it's fixed, discovers it's not, still proceed to post elsewhere rather than hitting up the forum thread where everyone who was helping, is looking... So has the OP actually 'fixed' the issue, or are they simply not responding to the thread where they should be posting more feedback about what the problem is, or saying that they actually fixed it.... (Them posting in the Looking for Scripters thread, contradicts any perception that it's fixed at all.

They are completely different issues. He was modifying the CREATE TABLE and he was thinking it will take effect but table already exists and he had to use ALTER TABLE.

The problem he asked in the other thread is for recovering a database, it may not be related at all with his current database. It might have been an old database he had and no backups but just those files.

Or even a problem with manager software (WAMP/XAMPP etc) and what not. Trying to upgrade mysql is not an easy task and requires you to have "data" folder as a backup. However, installing the manager in another path/using another Windows User will completely break the contents of that folder and will not work. If no exports, these files are the only solution.

I sent him a personal message on how to recover the database so he will not waste his money. You, posting it here is irrelevant and off-topic and since you did, I decided to do as well with the fix included.

At the end of the day, recovery of database is not related to samp indirectly. There are sites with great answers (such as stackoverflow/stackexchange).
