Restoring a .tar.gz copy of the database is problematic in that: * The CGI times out (hacked by me originally to "fix" this as the stupid PHP pages have some convoluted logic to offer hard-coded timeouts.) * And even when that purportedly succeeds and there appears to be information in the database, the front-end PHP pages don't seem to recognise the fact that there is data. I don't have any mail links, no. But those two points are it -- the second one being more interesting. And I am told there's been schema change either, so it should "just work". -- Thomas Adam
