Urgent: Server hacked how to recover sql db

Hi,

I have a linux server. Someone hacked the server and has deleted all the files. I have backup of the php scripts but do not have mysql database backup. How can I recover deleted sql database?

 

Hi,

maybe your hosting provider have backup from your site and your database. send one email and ask them. if the they don't have backup then you are in trouble...

Its a self managed dedicated server. and i have no backup

 

Hi,

I'm afraid you can restore your database . In future you need setup minimum daily complete backup on your server. I can help you to write one backup script for your server.

Check in your /var/lib/mysql dir to see if there still is your database directory... if it's not there anymore, then no hope.
