Which is where GnuCash starts loading the database. This is more likely the problem:

MySQL apparently didn’t set an error, but maybe there’s some info in the logs about why that would be.

There’s no query there that would explain why the actual database is emptied either. Maybe the MySQL logs can shed some light on that as well.
