Hi, I recently backed up a MTOS 4.1 installation using the backup feature of the site (I chose "everything"). Now I wanted to restore that backup on a different machine, and chose "restore", and selected the backup file to restore from. The message said "restore successful" (or similar), but I can't find any of the restored data on the site. What gives?
A good database schema documentation to move content, settings etc. manually, would also be much desirable, but so far, I missed any of it (being still a newbie :/).
TIA!
IIRC, the restore process tries to replicate your original directory structure. So, if you were using /home/tonim/www/ as the base for your old blogs, and you restore to a system configured for say /export/home/tonim/www, MT will try to create everything at /home/tonim/www. I had a similar issue with weird behavior when I tried to restore a backup snapshot from my hosted blog onto my MacBook Pro.
