Restore backup

is there any option to restore a backup generated from CWP?

If the only option is manually... is very, very sad

In my opinion this is main problem of CWP.  If CWP had a sell script to restore the backups like cPanel it would be great

All you should really have to do is "cp -a" the user's selected backup directory to their home directory "chown -R" it to the user then drop their current database(s) and attach the corresponding backup one(s).

hello dear members.

as an cwp user from 6 months, i am finding this task as a bit difficult to restore backup taken from cwp directly.
is their anyone who can suggest any method..
i think cwp is very slow in bringing updates.


also, i am a pro member of cwp but, not satisfied..

Hi, what kind of problem do you have with the backup restoration?

hay, i have created a ticket about my issue in the http://support.centos-webpanel.com/

but you people do not understand what issue i am having.
let me tell you once again in frunt of all members about my issue:
issue:
when you try to upload any created backup from user's panel like home directory, MYSQL DB and full backup, you do not have option to upload it.
how you can check this issue?
1: login into any of your user panel/customer panel of CWP.
2: just first go to file manager/backup
3: now generate full backup/download home directory backup in to your local machine.
4: now again into backup, try to upload that backup.
you will not find a way to upload the backup..
is this a bug or a what?
and again, dont give me some hard instructions to restore backup because, it is user settings/user's need that they should get that feature.
because, it is main requirement.

Hi

have there been a solution to easily restore a backup ? also trying to do the restore and no luck so far

I am having issues with restoring a backup too. I see how to make a full account backup but how can I restore it? There are no options anywhere. Not even in the main CWP settings.

Yes there is, on another tab, if you use the 'new' backup. I've used it a few times over the past week, whilst trying out an e-commerce package.

Hi

Is there a guide on how to restore full account backup generated in CWP? I see there is cpanel account restore. But how to restore a CWP backup?

Personally, I have migrated / moved / restored many times, the server, accounts or websites on a CWP. However, I always preferred to do everything by hand.

You made me want to test the Newbackup (Beta) option, because theoretically it makes a total backup, and practically it has the possibility of restoring that backup. In addition, see for yourself that no one in the community confirms this procedure.

So far, the total backup I downloaded via FTP (logged in as user) to the local PC is ok. I chose backup per user account with all options checked. Run manually not with automatic execution (daily, weekly or monthly).

In this regard, due to specific connection configurations (SSH with key) I was forced to move the backup file to /home/username/ to be able to download it locally (with changing permissions from root to user using the chown command).

The file is loaded in the /newbackup/ folder or in the restoration process you choose another folder depending on how you uploaded it to the new server (FTP or SSH). Pay attention to the backup file, it needs root permissions, not user permissions.

So before running the restore on the new server,

Code: [Select]

chown root:root /newbackup/username.tar.gz if you worked non-root like I did.

I migrate the VPS from Centos 7 to Almalinux 8, and because I work on the same server, I decided to backup it, then wipe the OS and reinstall Almalinux 8, then install CWP (of course PRO) and then to restore the backup.

I'm back with news about running the procedure to restore an account backup in CWP.

PS: I'm not gullible, I also manually backed up websites, databases, emails and other custom settings from the server. I'm not worried about reconfiguring the Webserver, but just in case the automatic restore fails, I have plan B, manual restore (as I'm used to).

I'm back with good news. I managed to restore an account on a newly configured server.

The procedure involves the creation on the new server of the same user account name for which you made a backup. Then upload the username.tar.gz file to the new server in the /newbackup/full/manual/accounts/ area

Now from the CWP panel go to the Newbackup (beta) section > Restore backup tab

Tick ​​the default location and choose Frequency: Manual, Backup: Full, User Accounts: yours and click the Restore Now button

Depending on how big your backup is, you can wait a few minutes.

Domains, emails, databases and others are successfully restored!

The Restore Backup option in the Newbackup section (beta) works!
