If you would like to upgrade your LimeSurvey installation or transfer it to another location/server, we highly recommend you to back up all your data (questions, participants, responses, etc.). You can use the Backup entire database function for this purpose.
After you clicked on it, a window will pop up, asking you where you would like to save the .sql database backup.
This backup is recommended when you wish to:
- transfer your LimeSurvey application to another server;
- upgrade your LimeSurvey application (non-ComfortUpdate solution).
Note: If you use the ComfortUpdate functionality, a database backup is automatically created in the /tmp folder.This option is also used when changes on different settings (e.g. in the code) are done. In this way, you secure your data in case the application breaks up.
