Restore a Script from Command Line (Only For cPanel)
Softaculous allows you to restore a script from command line. Here is the guide:
- Use the following command to restore the script :
php /path/to/softaculous/cli.php --restore --file=FILENAME --restore_dir=1 --restore_db=1 --restore_datadir=1 --restore_wwwdir=1
- Thats it. You have restored your backup on your server.
Variables
- In the above command the first parameter should be –restore as this parameter will initiate the restore function.
- –file=FILENAME – Here FILENAME is the name of the backup file (.tar.gz) to be restored. For eg.: wp.26_45368.2015-11-17_05-26-39.tar.gz
- –restore_dir=1 – If set to 1, it will restore the installation directory.
- –restore_db=1 – If set to 1, it will restore the database.
- –restore_datadir=1 – If set to 1, it will restore the installation’s data directory. This parameter is used only if the script contains the Data Directory
