    Hi,

    I am looking for help from someone with a lot of php script and SQL Server experience to run a Backup Buddy php script to restore my database. The backup buddy files are on the new server host. I tried to run and was able to create the Wordpress environment but need help trying to figure out how to restore database. If you are interested let me know your rate per hour and anything that makes you think you can get the job done. Thanks!

    Can't you do it yourself with ImportBuddy?

    https://ithemes.com/codex/page/BackupBuddy:_ImportBuddy

    There's documentation to show you how to import a database.

    I thought I would be able to but it is tricky. First of all the old host server is gone so I can't refer back to it. I have a new host with different file paths and such that are making this more complicated. Rather than spin my wheels any longer, I hope to find someone that is a bit more savvy at doing this kind of restore.

    If you haven't found anyone by tomorrow, give me a shout. I'd offer to do it now but it's Friday night and I'm off out soon! :(

    I have never worked with backup buddy.

    Cant you open the databases in notepad, and look at the code, and go to myphpadmin and simply copy/paste the remaining sql code and run it?

    Typically in a SQL database backup file, simply copy/pasting it and running it in phpadmin is able to create databases, tables, and fill it with the correct info.
    if your stuck, File a ticket with your webhost -> thats what they are there for.

    I would offer to help, but its nearly 2am here.
