I have just installed XAMPP on Mac OS X Snow Leopard and need to use some mysql tables that were saved on a backup drive on Leopard before upgrading to Snow Leopard which destroyed my access to my Mysql tables through the former Apache web server and Mysql server through an as yet insoluble DBD:mysql installation problem.. I can see the tables in the phpMyadmin window with XAMPP, but trying to examine the tables results in errors such as this:
#1017 - Can't find file: './alprog/allist.frm' (errno: 13) The file is sitting right there in the directory: allist.frm
I understand that there is a way to repair tables but I have not discovered how to do that with XAMPP. Does anyone have the solution to my problem?
Thank you
