Database tracks

Hello,

I used tracks as a stand alone application on my server. Now I want to use the Bitnami packages.
The only problem is, that my old installation doesn’t work anymore, so now I can’t make an export from my old installation. Also I don’t know in which mysql tables tracks saved the todo’s and users. Is this is the ibdata1?

I treid to copy the forms and the ibdata1 to the bitnami installation, but this doesn;t work.

I hope someone can help me to solve this problem.

Thanks a lot,

Smika

The database name is “bitnami_tacks” in the mysql/data folder, but copy the database is not the best way to restore the database. Could you start the old database and create a backup?

$ mysqldump -u root -p bitnami_tracks > bitnami_tracks.sql

The strange thing is, when I add a todo in my tracks. I don;t see any change in the timestamp of the files in bitnami_tracks. So where does tracks store his data?

Could you check the timestamp of the files into that folder?

I added a todo 1 hour ago, but nothing changed!

Sorry, really strange I do not know what could be happening.

That;s why I think tracks saved my todo’s in ibdata1. But how can I import or use this from my old installation? When I copy my old ibdata1 to the mysql/data folder, then tracks doens’t work anymore.
