I succesfully imported the database from
version 0.4.5 to the newest drake version 0.4.6 RC1
Then I wanted to import the tarball backup with the user data,
but I don't kow how to do it?
Have I to unpack the
things to private/ `?
I downloaded the normal drake
package and installed it...

Hi Siedlerchr,
a better way is to upload the tarball
into '/private/backup/' and then go to 'System -> Tarball
Backup' in the admin area, select the uploaded tarball end press
'Update' - that's it!
Good luck ...

ERRR...!
The 'Update' action will update the selected
tarball archive with the contents of the current website, not
viceversa!
Actually there is no 'Restore' feature
because on some systems it might not be possible to overwrite the
currently executed php script.
To restore a tarball
backup you should extract it (eventually overwriting) in the
Drake CMS root folder; you should always set the flag 'user data
only' when restoring between different Drake CMS versions,
otherwise you will downgrade your Drake CMS and 100% break it (if
you are not using a flatfile database system your database data
will still be in place, luckly)!
Once done that, you
can restore the database backup (if it was attached to the
tarball archive) since it will be found in place under
private/backups

You might
use veloce.php to do the dirty work
