    when trying to restore a tarball, the campsite-restore script throws the below error. i guess this comes from the user/password that came with the tarball. how can i alter this to work with my new mysql configuration?
    $ ./bin/campsite-restore /home/micz/Downloads/backup-campsite-2010-05-29-00-55-11.tar.gz

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /var/www/campsite/bin/cli_script_lib.php on line 323

ERROR!
Unable to connect to the database server.

    i didn't read enough of the RTFM Smile simple solution: adding -e at the end of the line will tell the restore script to use the variables already set in my install.

    works beautifully. thanks.

 * Backup database name is 'fluter_campsite_update'.
 * Destination database name (to be replaced) is 'campsite'.

 All files in the following directories will be deleted.
 (The backup files will be copied to these locations)
    /var/www/campsite/templates
    /var/www/campsite/images
    /var/www/campsite/files

 Are you sure you want to continue? (y/N) y
