--------------

If you think you have found a bug and would like to report the

screenshot to florent.chuffart on its ens-lyon.fr email. Thank you for

your contribution.

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU REGULARLY BACKUP you MyLabStocks

database. We provide two levels of backup. The first only dump the

mySQL database and the second also add the uploaded files

(plasmid_files raw_dirs directories in your /var/www/labstocks

directory). These two features are available on the *home* page. The

two links in the sentence *Backup the entire system or only the

database NOW!* allow any user to download the requested backups. It

could be useful for an administrator to integrate it in a robust file

backup system using for example a cron that regularly pull the

archives (*wget http://.../labstocks/backup.php?FULL_BACK=1*).

How To Restore System From Backup

---------------------------------

On the targeted server, you can restore database from the last backup

(file ''labstocks_db.sql'') by typing the following command in a

terminal. It drops existing tables, creates new one and restore data.

You have to adapt user password and database name according to your

setting.

   sudo mysql --user=root --password=root labstocks_db < labstocks_db.sql

To restore uploaded file, you have to copy backuped directories

(''plasmid_files'' and ''raw_dirs'') to your labstocks directory. To

do that, on the targeted server type the following commands in a

terminal.

   sudo cp -r plasmid_files raw_dirs /var/www/labstocks/.
