Query concerning empty WP database on a subdomain

I have created a subdomain on my main hosting site and successfully installed WP on it. Plan to transfer the site using the Duplicator plugin to the main site, which is NOT a WP site, There is a factor that I believe needs to be solved before making the migration. 1: cPanel> File Manager contains the sub domain folders: wp.mainsite.com /cgi-bin /wp 2: cPanel> File Manager root:home/mainsite 3: php MyAdmin + mainsite_wp10 (contains all of the files of the mainsite) + mainsite_wpx ( WP database is empty, this is the subdomain where WP has been installed ) 4: MySQL Database database: mainsite_wp10 size: 1.54 MB (main site) database: mainsite_wpx size: 0.00 MB (subdomain with WP installed) Both sites have users correctly added with full privileges. The WP site has been completed and visible when the URL is loaded to a browser. So my question is: why do I have an empty database in my WP installation and how can I solve it? TIA

  Hello, Can you open phpMyAdmin from the cPanel interface and verify the database in-question is actually empty? Thank you.

  Thank you for your reply. Yes it is empty. When the database is viewed in phpMyAdmin >> No tables found in database. This is the database I created with full user privileges and corresponds to the subdomain that I created on the localhost. When in the installation of WP is viewed in cPanel/FileManager all the contents of the installed site are visible.

  Could you report this issue to your web hosting provider so they can take a closer look to see why that database isn't populated with data? This isn't something you can do without root access to the system. Thank you.
