retreive database from former host

  • I recently introduced a new site for my company and we have an existing WordPress blog that I thought I had successfully migrated. Unknowingly, I left the database behind and the switch was made to the new host. Once I realized that he database had not been retrieved, I instructed the new host to switch back to the old host and then installed phpmyadmin from the old host but 36 hours later the propagation (domain back to old host) has not taken place> I need to get that database and was wondering if there are other ways to retrieve it. I have tried FTP and looking at other methods but I am not skilled in this area.

  • Can you still access admin side of the original site?

    no, this is the error message I get when trying to log in:
    The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

    Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

    More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
