Restoring Backups
 

How would i go about restoring a backup of my forums, since the backup i made is 7.21MB and can't possibly be uploaded that way

Find someone who can, you'd need to use PHPmyAdmin to restore it, just run the .sql file on the database. You'll have to upload it at some point otherwise how can you restore it :P

well it's over 7MB, and won't upload that way very easily

Its possible on 56k, I've done an 8mb one! Why not get one of your trusted mates with broadband to do it?

lol i have Broadband, but it still takes forever

@Orange: on most servers there is a 2MB limit for uploaded files. It has nothing to do with your bandwith.

@Ultimate: As i remember right, there is a backup/restore hack in the betasection which can work on FTP-uploaded sql files

2mb upload limit? heh... not on mine :P hehe!

Hope you get the problem sorted Ulti.

yep, just found that theres a 2MB limit, and it looks like the host won't upload the mysql for us, does anyone know any other way, i can't do seperate backups, because some individual tables take up over 2MB anyway

as i already said:

already tried it, doesn't effect my database at all when i use it
