Ok I'm pretty sure this can go here?
My problem is that I need to export 'vb3' (My current database) but it's not in .sql format on my server.
It's a folder containing a load of tables;
I can't access my site as I'm in recovery mode on my server, so phpmyadmin etc is out of the question.
I've already got a backup of my files, and I'm having my server reinstalled so I just need to know how I can safely backup this database for use on the new installation.
Can I just download the folder and upload it to the same directory on the new installation?
Preferably I'd like to have the database in a .sql format.
