Backup

[Marc Marx]

Hello and good day,

I have EspoCRM installed locally under MAMP. How can I make a backup? Is there a function in EspoCRM or do I have to do the manuel with MAMP?

Thank you for your feedback

No, there is no such functionality at present. Simply back up your espo folder (presumably under htdocs) and run an export from phpmyadmin for backing up the database. Or (easier but takes a bit longer) - backup the entire mamp folder.

Hallo iscon,

vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Okay, ich sichere also manuell die komplette Datenbank und den Ordner unter htdocs. Wie kann ich dann wieder alles zurückspielen, wenn mal das System versagt?

Vielen Dank und einen guten Start in die neue Woche

Since I have done this a 1000 times I guess: copy the directory backup to exactly the same place, create a new database with exactly the same name (assuming it doesn't exist anymore), restore (import) your DB dump, check your config.php (in ESPOPATH/data) for the DB name, user name and password - create user and PW accordingly in mysql and assign the DB to this user, making it available locally only and ticking the first 8 permission boxes.
That it is. If you copied the entire MAMP directory - just copy it back, start Apache and mysql and you are all set.

Hi iscon,

Thank you very much. That's how I'll do it. Thank you!
