All was ok with AMPPS till this morning when MYSQL could not start, I read this forum and found out that deleting all files under VAR folder will solve the problem.
It did and now MYSQL starts however, my joomla websites now can not start i get the error "Error displaying the error page: Application Instantiation Error" for all my sites
Please help

Hi,

You have deleted your databases. Do you have the backup of the databases, we can help you restore it.

Please provide me the link of the post you followed, because that is not correct. /Applications/AMPPS/var is the data folder of the mysql.

Hi,

Then it shouldn't be a problem.

Where those files regenerated when you restarted MySQL server ?

Can you access joomla database from phpMyAdmin ?

In joomla config file "configuration.php", you should be able to see MySQL Database Details. Please verify from phpMyAdmin that they exist.

If they are not present or changed please correct the details in the config file.

Let me know if this solved the issue.

Hi,

Make sure the database details from configuration.php like database name, database user of your joomla website are present.

You can check from command line if the mysql user can connect to mysql server and access the database.

Code
/Applications/AMPPS/mysql/bin/mysql -u mysql_user -p'mysql_pass'


If you are into mysql shell then the username and password is present.
Code

mysql> SHOW DATABASES;


If the mysql user has the access to joomla database, database name should be listed by running above command.
