[HOWTO] Backup and Restore complete Domain
Hello!

I want to introduce a new migration tool for ispCP, escpecially for moving a domain from one machine to another. The usage is very simple.

What you need:
* A working ispCP release (I've currently only tested with 1.0.3) on both machines
* At least one reseller on the target machine
* GNU privacy guard signature verification tool (aptitude install gpgv)

Source machine:

Code:
cd /var/www/ispcp
svn export http://www.isp-control.net:800/ispcp_svn/branches/backup-restore
cd backup-restore
php backup.php DOMAIN PASSWORD

Then copy the file DOMAIN.tar.gz.gpg under /var/www/ispcp/backup-restore/archive to the target server.

Restore at target server:

Code:
cd /var/www/ispcp
svn export http://www.isp-control.net:800/ispcp_svn/branches/backup-restore
cd backup-restore
php restore.php DOMAIN PASSWORD

You can get the command line help via "php restore.php" or "php backup.php"

Currently the following parts of a domain can be migrated:

* Domain data, Administration login
* FTP users
* E-Mail
* Databases, users and of course the database contents itself
* Complete /var/www/virtual/DOMAIN path

Restore of DNS settings is currently not integrated. You can set a specific IP or reseller name (login) in the restore process. If you get any errors, please don't create a ticket, because it's currently not officially part of ispCP. Use the forum to give feedback :-)

@aseques: Perhaps we can use your work to complete the new tool? Perhaps for a "one-click" Plesk migration and other panels?

RE: [HOWTO] Backup and Restore complete Domain
What version of ispCP do you use on the target machine? It should be the latest official release (1.0.3-1).

Are you sure, everything was deleted sucessfully after removing the user by ispCP panel? Please check database table "admin" after deletion. The entry for the new domain user must not be in this table.

Otherwise please activate MySQL logging to detect a wrong query.

Yes, currently there are some problems restoring on 1.0.4. I will talk with nuxwin about solving this problem. Thanks for your response!

Of course I will also create a Wiki page for detailed documentation, after we have fixed the major errors :-)

RE: [HOWTO] Backup and Restore complete Domain
I've had a problem restoring 1.0.3 files on a new 1.0.5 installation.
I had to manually chown the fcgi config files to get php working again.
Could this not be done by the script also?
