TravelinMoe Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hi there, I have a new CubeCart store.. Love It! I have set it all up and it is all good so far. I did a fresh CubeCart install in a different domain and I am trying to duplicate it from the original. I have performed the Back up of the Files and the Databases from within the CubeCart Maintenance/Backup page on the original. This created 2 files which I have downloaded. The question is: How to I Restore this data to the new CubeCart location? I need to restore from the downloaded Backup files. Basically I want to two identical stores and start different edits, logos and products on the second one. The first store layout is great. Looking forward to a solution. I have tried to do searches on Restore, but to no avail. Ideas? Thanks a bunch, Maurice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisorganic Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hi Maurice, Go to your admin, maintenance, backup area where you did your back up before. Scroll down the page until you can see the Existing Backups and a list of downloads. On the right hand side of your backup list you will have 3 icons; recycle, download and trash. Hover over the recycle icon, it should say restore. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelinMoe Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 Hiya Harris, Yea, that's what I though too. However on the new store there are no backups yet. I need to Restore to the new (empty) store the Backup I made from the original store. Perhaps I need to upload the Original store backup I downloaded onto the new store and Restore. Basically I am wanting to Restore into a blank store from downloaded backup files. Ideas? Thanks, Maurice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrisorganic Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 If you look on your server side do you have a folder called backup? This may be an empty folder which you may be able to upload your back up files to. If that does not work then I am guessing from now on. Dirty butler may know.

Dirty Butter Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 I don't understand how the backup is built well enough to know if you can copy it over to a backup folder on the new site or not. It seems like there would be data specific to the original install that should not be carried over - BUT I DO NOT KNOW. @havenswift-hosting or @Noodleman would be the most knowledgeable about something like this.
