Restore users from old db

[mcdconcepts]

Hi
I have moved servers and it did not go well. So I have reinstalled SMF, all I want to do is restore the members we used to have in old db.
Luckily, I have only just started in setting this up so there are not many.
How do I do this please?
Many thanks
Chris

you should never do a partial restore. the tables have interconnections and restoring only the users would put things in a bad state.

You should restore the entire database - and then use repair_settings.php to correct the paths, etc that would be different between servers.

In what way it didn't go well?

Mods didn't go over properly, database got corrupted. All sorts of issues. Up and going again though thanks to davej
