Hi - having a nightmare - I backed up my database and then used Tools - 'Reset all tables and do a fresh install' - thinking that I could import the sql backup and all would be OK - clearly not! How do I get my products , orders etc back - I can see them in the SQL. Not sure what's happened?
Thanks for any help!
Create a new empty database (named differently from the live one) and import your backup db into that. Then in Joomla Global Config/Server change the db settings to the new one.
Once restored, update to a secure VM version! http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=118683.0
