Backing up/Restoring a site using Gladius flat text database
24 November 2007 15:04
Anonymous Hi, I am a bit uncertain of how to handle this issue.

Drake CMS admin has a feature of backing of the site into a tar.gz packege. How is it implemented for the Gladius DB. I presume it is not.

How can then one make security backups for a site using Gladius DB. Should one simply copy all the files?

This issue seems somehw related to migration, because if a Gladius DB could be retored, than this could be a part of migration, as

- installing a new site
- replacing some key folders
- updating the private/config.php file
- restoring the Gladius DB

Thanks.

Anonymous Hi and Welcome

You can do a normal SQL backup of Gladius or SQLite.

or

When you select the tarball backup feature the Gladius DB or SQLite files are backed up as part of the tarball

You also have the option to include a SQL backup, but as the DB is backed up as part of the tarball it is not needed.

Hope this helps.

Anonymous It's like any other database system, you just make the SQL backup and then restore it remotely
