Copying of mysql binary log files

Question

If I copy mysql binary log files (/var/lib/mysql/mydb the .frm and .ibd files) from one mysql instance to another, will the databases be copied over correctly (assuming using the same mysql server version)?

Answer 1

You should use a utility to do this, something like MySQLDump. You way of copying the files will require manually correcting the conf files and possibly missing something.

look Here for Mysqldump
