I found that the database I was primarily interested in only had a
MyISAM table (.myd and .myi file), nothing in InnoDB. So I first copied
over that database directory to my other MySQL instance and restarted
it. MySQL Workbench hang a bit when expanding its tree, so I dropped the
database, recreated it and then copied the table in and restarted. Works
fine now. I have restored the database in this way on the new server
machine and the application works again. :-)
Next time we'll have a more reliable backup...
