First you need to recover the database, and see if all

(if that
is your mysql data folder).
Your trick did not work, since I could not restart the mysql
server after having copied the entire directory but when I
copied the dir /var/lib/mysql/maqwiki *and* the ibfile1
_then_ I can connect to the db!!!!
