Xibo

Minimum workable backup

Asked by Martin Mason

I'm developing procedures for an Xibo installation that I'm building and I am trying to determine the best backup strategy.

I've tried just mysql and XiboLibrary but that does not give a working environment after a restore.

Backing up xampp complete is rather large! so I'm looking for a happy medium - enough to be able to rebuild after a catastrophe or a server migration but not complete over-kill.

Anyone done this?

mysql:
Complete Xibo database. You can safely truncate stat and log tables if you wish. Dump with mysqldump to ensure you preserve the key constraints.

Library:
Complete server library directory

Server:
At least settings.php but the whole Xibo install folder is less than a couple of megabytes.
