    Hello there,

    Unless you have root access to the VPS, you will not be able to restore the full backup. If you do not have access, you will need to ask your host to restore the backup. If you do have access, move the full backup into either the /root directory or the /home directory, then run the following:
    /scripts/restorepkg accountname

    Regards,
    Chris

    Agree with what Chris has said. You can find account name in the backup itself. If you encounter any error, post it here we can help.

    Even if you dont have root access you can still restore the site using FTP and phpmyadmin.
    1. unzip your backup file download from your host cpanel
    2. Create the new domain in your new cpanel
    3. upload all contents of your public_html folder inside your unzipped folder to the new cpanel's public_html folder
    4. import the DB using phpmyadmin and your source files will be .sql files inside your "mysql' folder of unziped folder
