Cannot restore host list from backup files.

[mynn]

Hi, I am using CactiEZ. It backups cacti with "backup.sh". But I have problem on restoring data...

I followed the instructions on internet and restroed the rra files into /var/www/html/rra.
Also used code below to get back mysql:

Code: Select all

mysql cacti < /var/www/html/cacti-backup.sql
mysql syslog < /var/www/html/syslog.sql

But there are not any hosts showed in the list on the cacti webpage. I have no idea on how i can settle down the problem...

I am not familiar with mysql, seems that the cacti database is empty. (using "select count(*) from cdef" and the result is 0).

Much appreciate~~

In most cases, mysql will require a user and a password to perform those requests. E.g. "mysql --user=cactiuser -p cacti < backup.sql"
