Hi Guys.
Im trying to Restore some data that was backed up from a site that I now want to make obsolete.
I managed to do this earlier in the week while I was testing it and now I am happy that the new site is working properly I want to restore the most upto date data before I permenantly switch off the old site.
Unforunatly when I try to restore my latest backup it doe3snt restore anything and it doesnt give me any errors, it just returns to a blank db_backup.php.
I have used some software to check the difference between the file that restored ok & the latest file I am trying to restore and apart from some new records there is no difference.
I have re-tried restoring the original file that did initially restore and it still does restore, but I cant get this new one to restore.
Any suggestions ?
