hello

after moving sites from old server to new server i cannot find the usernames , how can i recreate or show the database username already exist and assigned to database name

and where the database username information or path would be found in the server

for example database names and data found in /var/lib/mysql

but database username where is the path ?

and where is the database username path in the backup too ?

Regards,

i found that database usernames saved in /var/cpanel/database and /var/cpanel/datastore

where i can find the information about database username in the backup and restore it manually ?

Hello :)

The method you used to manually transfer the databases is not recommended or supported. The database usernames and databases should have been included in the account backup archives. Do you have the backup archives of the accounts from the source server? Is the source server still active?

Thank you.
