An
interesting place worth exploring if you want to share Moodle courses and
resources is the learning commons built into MoodleCommons.org. I blogged a few notes here.<br><br><a class="snap_shots" href="http://tr.im/pQWU">http://moodlecommons.org</a><br><br><img title="3662689220_fb51f86990_m.jpg" alt="3662689220_fb51f86990_m.jpg" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2588/3662689220_fb51f86990_m.jpg"><br>
<br>This
new online space is built up of courses that have been created and shared
by other Moodle users. Why not become part of the Moodle revolution and
upload your course or help improve those posted by others. :-)<br><br>Regards Roland<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/6/26 Phil Brown <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pdbrown@gmail.com">pdbrown@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">There are two things you
need. The first is a copy of the database and secondly a copy of the data
directory. When you create the new server make sure those two things go back in
the same place. Reinstall the same version of Moodle and point it to the restored
database and data directory. Hopefully it should all work. Good luck.<br>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi folks,<br>
I've been asked to recover/restore course data from the HDD of a Moodle server.<br>
Server has died but left files intact.<br>
<br>
I have access to a hosted Moodle site for eventual restoration and use of the
course material<br>
but I don't know how to identify and extract the course data. Moodle version is
1.7.<br>
<br>
Any help appreciated.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Rob<br>
