I'm running MySql 5.1.58 on a Cloud Hosted Ubuntu 11.10 server. The engine is InnoDB but NOT per table. i.e. Only 1 file for all Tables and Data.
I suddenly seem to have lost ALL my DATA only from EVERY table in my database. However each of the tables is perfectly intact i.e. the structures are all fine including index definitions etc.
The mysql.log and mysql.err files in /var/log are both empty. There is an error.log file in /var/log/mysql which contains some entries but does not show any errors.
Please can anyone give me some idea of WHAT might have caused this and probably more importantly how do I get my data back. I do have a datadump from last night but I would prefer not to have to restore that as there has been some work done today which I would ideally not like to lose.
Thanks
