What is the exact location of MySQL database tables in XAMPP folder?

Question

I have a MySQL database and I want to know the exact location where this data actually stored in the XAMPP folder, I went to this file location to try to get the information

Answer 1

Data are store in this path. You can search data location, just put the below address in your search location (url address):

C:\xampp\mysql\data

Answer 2

Your database is in this directory:
C:\xampp\mysql\data

Answer 3

If you are like me, and manually installed your webserver without using Xampp or some other installer,

Your data is probably stored at C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\data

Answer 4

In Ubuntu the file path is ./opt/lampp/var/mysql

Answer 5

Rather late I know, but you can use SELECT @@datadir to get the information.

Happy file huntin' SO community :)

Answer 6

Just in case you forgot or avoided to copy through PHPMYADMIN export feature..

Procedure: You can manually copy: Procedure For MAC OS, for latest versions of XAMPP

Location : Find the database folders here /Users/XXXXUSER/XAMPP/xamppfiles/var/mysql..

Solution: Copy the entire folder with database names into your new xampp in similar folder.

Hope it helps, happy coding.
