Re: [SL] Restoring SL from Backup?

[Michael H. <mh...@it...>]

The step-by-step I'm thinking of had a couple things to watch out for  
when restoring to a server that had SL already installed.  Something  
about removing the existing DB, (or maybe just the tables?) and  
tweaking the database user(s).  Don't remember now.  :/  It wasn't  
anything earthshaking but probably easier than figuring out the  
little gotchas on the fly.


Thanks,

Michael
