I have a forum..
I made it a few days ago and i used to keep the forum backup every day
i have my latest backup but then 1 day some Database error came and i had to reinstall my forum again
Now I have the backup and i dont know how to upload/Restore the backup again
I had taken the backup from

Maintenance --> Database Backup
Click to expand...

Now i have build a new forum
is there anyway with which i can restore my old forum back?

And there is 1 more Problem
When i go here:

Execute SQL Query
Click to expand...

And use super admin account then i see this error

You are not authorized to execute SQL queries
Click to expand...

why this?
 
First of all, you should NOT be using the internal vBulletin backup features to do important system backups, you should at a minimum be using phpmyadmin to do that, the vbulletin internal is unrealiable and when it breaks it doesn't tell you but adds the freaking error message to the dump so you think every thing is wonderful, NOT!

You have to authorize the userids you want to be able to use the query functions in admincp, they are in the config.php file about halfway down the page... HTH
 
good advice above...
try this, go to mysql in your cpanel...
find your database from the dropdown menu and click repair database...
see if that helps...:D
