[Mifos-developer] How to Restore Mifos Database after system Crash
John Mukundo
Dear Members,
I was using Mifosplatform v18.3 before My windows box got an Operating system(server 2012 R2) problem and it could no longer boot/start. I reinstalled fresh the operating system and the mifos application however my challenge is how to restore the Mifos database files.
NB : 1. The old tomcat files and MySQL files are still on the old hard disk
2. I had not made any backup before the OS crashed.
Please help.

How to recover your application and database if you have not backed up the MYSQL database.
Solution
1. Locate you’re the application data folder (usually hidden file ) example C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\data
2. Stop the MYSQL service from the computer service list
3. Stop Tomcat service
4. Replace the following folders to the working Mifos application.
a. mifosplatform@002dtenants
b. mifostenant@002ddefault
c. ib_logfile0
d. ib_logfile1
5. Run your tomcat service
6. Run the Mifos application .--. you should be able to start from where you last stopped.
Thank you.
