I am paginating a data table and have different views in my application where each view has its own rows. Some views may have data, some may not
Showing 1-0 of 0 Page 1 of 0
is what I am showing on a page with no rows
If I had some rows to display, it would be
Showing 1-30 of 45 Page 1 of 1
What do I display in the empty case?
Some possibilities
- Showing 0-0 of 0 Page 1 of 1
- Showing 0-1 of 1 Page 1 of 1

For this situation you can use an empty state which can be just text or a graphic with text and an action button.
Example of an empty state from Product Hunt:
Good empty states will give the users an action button which can push them in the right direction. A button with something like "Refine your search" might work in this case.
It doesn't make sense to show any pagination because there are no results let alone one or even half a page of results.

I would hide Showing "0 results from 0 results".
Instead I would add in place a Blank State image with a button for the user to add data. ( If the user adds the data ).
Displaying a pagination where there are no results is purely an artefact of a not so good UX.
