KB08081302 Copying the Configuration

 

Current versions of Mailtraq have an easy method of obtaining a copy of your Configuration.


In the Mailtraq Console use Tools | Backup Configuration to make a copy of the configuration.

 

Traditional  Console
 MMC/WiX  Console

It will store it here: C:\Program Files\Mailtraq\database\configuration.1

The actual number may be different -
 e.g. configuration.3 

 

It is made available as Zip file for the MMC Console.

Action - Backup Configuration
Give the backup file a name of your own choice, and 'save'.

Action - Restore Configuration
Locate the previously made backup Zip file, and 'restore'.

 

 



Tip

 

If it is necessary to send a copy of your configuration to Support (at their request) be sure to ZIP up maintaining folder structure.

Note:
Unless specifically requested do not include the 'spamassassin' folder.

Manual Configuration restoration

The Configuration lives at:
C:\Program Files\database\configuration

You can back up with Mailtraq running, but if you needed to restore the previous configuration you would unzip the backup somewhere outside Mailtraq's folder structure. Then shutdown Mailtraq, rename the old configuration folder, say to 'configuration-old' - then place a copy ff the restored backup in the /database folder. When you restart Mailtraq you'll be back exactly as before.
