Given that Moodle 2.0 is very close to release I'm concerned that I can't figure out how to restore a backup made in 1.9.

I uploaded it to the Site Files as before (I don't really understand the new file system but that's another story) but there is no option to restore it.

Am I missing something?

Hi Howard,

As you've found, it's not yet possible to restore 1.9 backups (or even 2.0 backups) in Moodle 2.0. Eloy is so busy coding that he asked me to reply to your post. wink Please see MDL-21432 for a list of Moodle 2.0 backup/restore implementation steps.

Cheers Helen. In the nicest possible way, is this going to work in time for the Beta release?

Hi. I am quite interested in the answer to this question as well. I am running preview 3 and it dosen't seem to work in that either.
