So i want to learn just how to restore a board if it crashes. Right now I have a test board started. Have NOT done the install yet. Just all the files uploaded. Last night i did a complete download of my live site. Also did a backup from the ACP , And i did a backup of my DB on the server.
Heres how I think it goes.
1: rename my backup database to whatever i call it in the phpbb install
2: install phpbb
3: use the backup I made from the ACP to restore the board.
Am i close?
Many thanks
(Note: If you refer me to links here on how to do this I have read them and this my solution. I DO NOT have a crashed board, just want to learn )
