Migrate account from cPanel server

If you need to migrate account from the cpanel server, you can do that very fast from the control panel.

Steeps
1. Upload cpmove/backup file in the /home folder
2. Goto Left Menu --> User Accounts --> cPanel Migration
3. enter username of the account which you want to restore (cpmove-USERNAME.tar.gz file must be in the /home folder)
4. select cpmove-USERNAME.tar.gz file to restore
5. enter domain, contact email and start restoring account
6. restore should be now done, if not successful the check bellow for the error solutions.

Known issues
1. cPanel backup file name must be named cpmove-USERNAME.tar.gz
2. Unpacked folder name must be cpmove-USERNAME

cPanel Migration Wizard restores the following
- All Files from public_html folder
- All MySQL databases
- All Users for the MySQL databases

This doesnot migrate emails ?

it migrates only the specified above, with time it will be improved.

it migrates only the specified above, with time it will be improved.

Except it doesn't restore any of the following
- All Files from public_html folder
- All MySQL databases
- All Users for the MySQL databases

Only thing it does is creates user accounts which I can do rather easily myself. Honestly, you should probably not try to list this as a feature of your control panel because it is severely lacking.

Administrator writes under Known issues:

"Unpacked folder name must be cpmove-USERNAME"

I am not quite sure what you mean here? Do you want the cpmove placed in a folder called 'cpmove-username' and THEN restored?

Please advice.

Please provide Screenshot base tutorial,
Step 1 - How to take backup from Cpanel and upload in CWP.
Step 2 - How to Migrate account from cPanel server in CWP successfully.

Indeed, the process just created a user account with folder on the server. But there's no file or so. I confirm too it's not working

 Basically, if we run a Wordpress site on a Cpanel, we should migrate all the sql and the wordpress file automatically up to the new server Centos.
 If you might have a picture tutorial it will be handy.
Thanks

Do not change the name backup-3.25.2016_19-18-17_USERNAME.tar.gz to cpmove-USERNAME.tar.gz that will not work.

Upload the backup-3.25.2016_19-18-17_USERNAME.tar.gz to /home folder
and then do the cPanel Migration and search for USERNAME.

hello
How can I migrate an account father, with the accounts daughters ?

Migrate the master account, but as migrate at the same time the accounts daughters?

Help!

sorry...don't understand this

I missed a progress bar is displayed on the screen when restoring from backup. Also I missed a button to cancel the restoration running.
I leave as a suggestion to improve the tool.

For example, the following command shows the progress of a compression in the terminal.
Suddenly it can be included in the backup restoration and other system tasks that require this dialogue with the user.

Code: [Select]

tar cf - /folder-with-big-files -P | pv -s $(du -sb /folder-with-big-files | awk '{print $1}') | gzip > big-files.tar.gz

Was error. Why ?

I am having a similar issue. It states user already exists and I can't even delete the user in CWP. 

Maybe I'm missing something but how do you create the tar.gz file? I can't find a way to make it in cwp and there's very little guidance on how to create it. Could you give an example of how one would create the tar.gz file either from a backup or the home directory?
