Backup and restore FAQ

2005-12-14T04:15:19Z

Bounty:

;Site backups
:Site backups, as explained in [[Upgrading_Moodle#Backup_important_data|upgrading Moodle]], are recommended in order to have all data saved with the best confidence and the shorter recovery time.

;Course backups
:Course backups, configured on the [[admin/backup|backup]] page, are more expensive in terms of time and CPU usage. The recovery time to have your site running again is longer. Course backups are useful for obtaining "fresh" copies of courses to be re-used or distributed individually, however they should never be used as a primary backup system (unless your hosting doesn't allow the preferred site backups).

===How do I backup my whole Moodle site?===

There are two main things you need to make a copy of - the database and the uploaded files. The Moodle scripts themselves are less important, since you can always download a fresh copy if you have to.

There are many ways to do such backups. Here is an outline of a little script you can run on Unix to backup the database (it works well to have such a script run daily via a cron task):

cd /my/backup/directory
mv moodle-database.sql.gz moodle-database-old.sql.gz
mysqldump -h example.com -u myusername --password=mypassword -C -Q -e -a mydatabasename > moodle-database.sql
gzip moodle-database.sql

For the files, you can use rsync regularly to copy only the changed files to another host:

rsync -auvtz --delete -e ssh mysshusername@example.com:/my/server/directory /my/backup/directory/

===Error: An error occurred deleting old backup data===

This part of the backup (or restore) procedure tries to delete old info, used in previous executions, performing the following tasks:

* Delete old records from "backup_ids" table: Check the table exists, repair it and try again.

* Delete old records from "backup_files" table: Check the table exists, repair it and try again.

* Delete old files from "moodledata/temp/backup": Delete the dir completely and try again.

There are various ways of repairing tables, including using MySQL Admin.

===XML error: not well-formed (invalid token) at line YYYY===

This problem can appear at any point in the restore process. It's caused when the XML parser detects something incorrect in the backup file that prevent correct operation. Usually, it's caused by some "illegal" characters added in the original course due to some copy/paste of text containing them (control characters, or invalid sequences...).

The best method to handle this issue is:

* Unzip the problematic backup file under one empty folder.

* Open the moodle.xml with Firefox. It will show you where (exact char) the problem is happening.

* Edit the moodle.xml file with some UTF8-compatible editor and delete such characters. Save changes.

* Test the moodle.xml file again with Firefox until no error was displayed.

* Zip everything again (all the folder contents but the folder itself!).

* Restore the course. It should work now.

Also, if possible, it's highly recommended to solve those problems in the original course too from Moodle itself. Once "repaired" there, problems will be out if you create new backup files in the future.

=== Some of your courses weren't saved!! ===

There are two possible causes of this problem:

1. Error - this happens when the backup procedure has found an error and so hasn't finished the backup of a particular course. These are "controlled" errors and the scheduled backup continues with the next course.

2. Unfinished - this happens when the backup procedure dies without knowing why. When the cron is next executed it detects that the last execution went wrong, and continues skipping the problematic course. A possible solution would be to raise the PHP/Apache limit in your installation (memory, time of execution...). By taking a look to your log tables you should be able to see if the "crash" is happening at exact time intervals (usually a problem with the max_execution_time php's variable), or if there is some exact point were all the courses are breaking (generally internal zip libraries, try to switch to external executables instead).

MoodleDocs:Guidelines for contributors

2005-12-14T04:15:13Z

Bounty:

You are welcome to contribute to MoodleDocs :-) Find something that can be improved, either in content, grammar or formatting, and fix it.

== Contributing to MoodleDocs ==

* Although it is possible to edit the documentation as an anonymous user, please [[Special:Userlogin|create an account or login]].
* Please note that all contributions will be released here under [http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html GNU Free Documentation License 1.2].

== Documentation for every page ==

* Moodle 1.6 will have a button in the header that links to pages in the wiki with the same path as the pages in Moodle. For example, the documentation page "Viewing and grading submissions" explains what can be seen on the page in Moodle where the teacher can view and grade assignment submissions. The URL of that page is something like <code>yourmoodlesite.org/mod/assignment/submissions.php</code>. When contributing to the documentation, if it contains part of a URL, say <code>mod/assignment/submissions</code>, it means that this documentation page refers to that page.
* Please note that the [http://moodle.org/help.php?file=index.html Moodle help files] will remain in each language pack and so their text need not be included in this documentation.

== Additional documentation ==

You are welcome to create pages for additional documentation. Simply type <code><nowiki>[[newpagename]]</nowiki></code> and follow the link to start editing the new page. Please choose a short name (just one or two words) and capitalize the first word only.
