I have a database which I used to install joomla 1.7. Unfortunately I lost the Joomla folder which I had kept on htdocs. I want to install another Joomla site and use the old database. I have tried to install another Joomla site and connect to the old database I had used, but it seems that a new site is being created. Is there any way I can map the Joomla website to the database? I don’t want to have to create another website.

in phpmyadmin try renaming new db to a different name and then changing backup to the currently used name. also check if there is some caching issues?
