Back up Everything

Before proceeding, stop the cron job for Blesta 2.5, put the installation into maintenance mode, and back up all files and the database.

Importing from Blesta 2.5

  1. Stop the cron job.
  2. Put the system into maintenance mode to prevent client logins by visiting Settings > General > Maintenance Mode.
  3. Back up all the files. You can do this via an FTP program, or via a shell by running: zip -r backup.zip /path/to/installation/*
  4. Back up the database. You can do this through a database manager like PHPMyAdmin using the "Export" feature, or with the mysqldump shell command by running: mysqldump -u database_username -p database_name > backup.sql and entering your database password when prompted.
