There must be or must have been software that exports or "unloads" the data from the tables in the whole database to a file or a series of files. What database was it - the name of the database like ProSQL or something.
What you are seeing is probably table metadata. Plus, a lot of databases use BCD storage for numeric data (BCD= binary converted decimals that have one byte per numeric character, like COBOL does in COMP-3 variables). You need to get the data back into human readable form.

wiki::toolkit::setup::mysql
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL(3pm)
NAME
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL - Set up tables for a Wiki::Toolkit store in a MySQL database.
SYNOPSIS
use Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL;
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL::setup($dbname, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbhost);
Omit $dbhost if the database is local.
DESCRIPTION
Set up a MySQL database for use as a Wiki::Toolkit store.
FUNCTIONS
setup
use Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL;
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL::setup($dbname, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbhost);
or
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::Mysql::setup( $dbh );
You can either provide an active database handle $dbh or connection parameters.
If you provide connection parameters the following arguments are mandatory -- the database name, the username and the password. The
username must be able to create and drop tables in the database.
The $dbhost argument is optional -- omit it if the database is local.
NOTE: If a table that the module wants to create already exists, "setup" will leave it alone. This means that you can safely run this
on an existing Wiki::Toolkit database to bring the schema up to date with the current Wiki::Toolkit version. If you wish to completely
start again with a fresh database, run "cleardb" first.
cleardb
use Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL;
# Clear out all Wiki::Toolkit tables from the database.
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::MySQL::cleardb($dbname, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbhost);
or
Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::Mysql::cleardb( $dbh );
You can either provide an active database handle $dbh or connection parameters.
If you provide connection parameters the following arguments are mandatory -- the database name, the username and the password. The
username must be able to drop tables in the database.
The $dbhost argument is optional -- omit if the database is local.
Clears out all Wiki::Toolkit store tables from the database. NOTE that this will lose all your data; you probably only want to use this
for testing purposes or if you really screwed up somewhere. Note also that it doesn't touch any Wiki::Toolkit search backend tables; if
you have any of those in the same or a different database see either Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::DBIxFTS or Wiki::Toolkit::Setup::SII,
depending on which search backend you're using.
ALTERNATIVE CALLING SYNTAX
As requested by Podmaster. Instead of passing arguments to the methods as
($dbname, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbhost)
you can pass them as
( { dbname => $dbname,
dbuser => $dbuser,
dbpass => $dbpass,
dbhost => $dbhost
}
)
or indeed as
( { dbh => $dbh } )
Note that's a hashref, not a hash.
