Backup & Restore

Database Backup

Before any migration, MigraPro can create a complete database backup:

  1. Progressive SQL dump — The database is exported in time-limited steps to prevent timeout issues, producing a single SQL file
  2. Progress tracking — Each backup step processes a configurable number of table rows
  3. Storage — Backup files are stored in the module's backup directory

Image Backup

Optionally back up your target store's image directories before migration. This preserves the original state so images can be restored if needed.

Restore

Database Restore

  1. Go to the Backups tab
  2. Select a backup to restore
  3. The restore runs in a single request, executing all SQL statements in one pass to avoid issues with PrestaShop's bootstrapping after critical tables are replaced

Image Restore

Image backups can be restored similarly, copying backed-up files back to their original locations.

Backup Management

The Backups tab provides:

  • List of all available backups with timestamps
  • One-click download of backup files
  • Delete old backups to free disk space
