[mysql4all]

Hello guys , my cpanel license is expired and I don't want to renew it . I need to have a backup of one of my databases . I wonder where are the databases located in CentOS ? I have root access . Also is it possible to have 3-4 days free license ? thanks

Hello,

Database raw files are located in "/var/lib/mysql" directory. You can take backup of the mysql databases using the following command.

mysqldump db_name > db_name.sql

Regarding the license, are you going to migrate the accounts to a new server ? If yes, you can take backups from backend and restore it in new server. Or renew license for one more month and proceed with the migration. So you will get one month to schedule and do the migration.

Hello,

The previous post is correct. As far as the license, you'd need to direct all license questions to [email protected] via email.

Thank you.

You can use phpMyAdmin to manage or edit your databases. It should be listed as an option under the Databases section in cPanel.

Thank you.

As a website owner without root access, you'd need to manage your databases via "cPanel >> phpMyAdmin".

Thank you.
