MySQL and MariaDB Database Recovery in Kuwait
A site showing "error establishing a database connection", or a MySQL service that refuses to start after a power cut? We work on InnoDB and MyISAM files directly on disk: copy first, then extract the tables from ibdata, ibd and MYD files, rebuild the database and bring the site or the program back up on it.
- InnoDB and MyISAM
- Sites, shops and business systems
- Strict confidentiality
Split it into four instalmentsAvailable at the showroom with Deema, Tabby and Taly
- InnoDBibdata1, per-table ibd files and MyISAM tables
- OnlineThe site or program back up, not just files
- No backupRecovery is possible without a usable backup
- NDACustomer and order data stay confidential
Cases we take in
Stop the service and do not repair tables before the data directory has been copied.
- MySQL or MariaDB will not start after a power cut
- InnoDB reports corruption at startup
- A crashed MyISAM table that asks to be repaired
- The site shows an error establishing a database connection
- A database or table dropped by mistake
- An SQL dump that is truncated or stopped halfway
- A version upgrade that broke the tablespace
- The server disk filled up and writes stopped
File level, not service level
When the service refuses to start, the data is usually still there: the files sit in the data directory and the engine simply will not open them because of a fault in the tablespace or the redo log. So our first step is not another start attempt, it is a full copy of the data directory.
After that the InnoDB files are read at page level: the data dictionary is extracted and records are read back out of the per-table ibd files even when ibdata1 itself is damaged. MyISAM tables are handled from their MYD and MYI files once the indexes are rebuilt.
And because the target is the site or the program rather than the files, the database is reinstated on a healthy service and the system is started on it, with orders, customers and stock checked before handover.
Systems whose databases we handle
- WordPress and WooCommerce shops
- Content management systems and forums
- Accounting and inventory software built on MySQL
- POS systems with a central database
- Laravel and other framework applications
- Databases on shared hosting or a dedicated server
How the work runs

Inspection
Read the state of the data directory and the service logs and identify the damage.
- 2
Report
What can be recovered, how long and at what cost, before any work.
- 3
Copy
A full copy of the data directory; work happens on the copy.
- 4
Extraction
Pull tables out of the InnoDB and MyISAM files and rebuild the database.
- 5
Back online
Reinstate it on a healthy service, start the site or program and test it.
Before you call us, do not do this
- Do not run table repair tools against the original data directory
- Do not delete redo log files to force the service to start
- Do not reinstall MySQL over the existing installation
- Do not restore an old backup over the current data
- Do not keep running the site on a damaged database
- Do not leave the disk full; failed writes add more damage
Copy the data directory as it is first; everything afterwards is built on that copy.

Frequently asked questions
MySQL will not start. Is the data lost?
Usually not. The files remain in the data directory and the fault is in the tablespace or the redo log. We copy the directory and extract the tables from the copy.
Can a database be recovered without a backup?
Yes. The work starts from the database files on disk. A backup shortens the job but is not a requirement.
ibdata1 is corrupt. Is that the end?
Not necessarily. Where tables are stored in separate ibd files they can be extracted and the dictionary rebuilt, and we recover what we can even when the central file is damaged.
I dropped a database by mistake. What should I do?
Stop writing to that disk immediately and do not create a new database in its place. Every new write can cover the deleted data and cost you the recovery.
Do you recover WordPress shop databases?
Yes, including order, customer and product tables. We reinstate the database and confirm the orders are visible before handover.
How long does it take?
One to two working days for the inspection, then the case decides. Logical damage is usually faster than damage to the storage media itself.
