Restoring backups - cmendes0101 - 04-27-2011 06:04 AM

I'm having a little trouble finding the right information.

Is there a built in feature to restore backups of ispcp? I see that it has been backing up at /var/www/ispcp/backup the configs and sql.

I tried searching but I only found the how to about backup-restore that seems to be not built in so was just hoping there is a built in restore since it backs up automatically.

on .../client/backup.php you also have the option of restoring the backup which is in the backup-folder

Wouldn't that just be restoring the domain?

My server crashed and only have access the files. It looks like ispcp backed up its own configuration(aside from the domains/clients) and would like to restore that.

ah... sure.

ok, in /var/www/ispcp/backups you have config_backup...tgz which is a backup of /etc (or /etc/ispcp?) - and the ispcp-....sql.gz which is a dump of the ispcp database...

have a look at the files and restore the data.

Careful: the 3 key files (db-key*) are not in the backup - they are needed for the encryption. So hopefully you have a backup of the /var/www/ispcp/gui|engine folder...

and also the data from squirrelmail are not backed up...
