Many, many thanks to Roel.

I sent him a (4.7.5M) backup file that refused to import into my newly updated 4.7.6M copy of LuxCal and within hours have had a working file returned to me.

Even the most expensive software packages don't reliably offer the level of service I have experienced with LuxCal.

You're the best!

Hi Roel

I have made a major cock-up!

I had an old installation (4.7.3M) on my server and my live copy (4.7.5M) of Luxcal. Due to poor memory and my utter stupidity, I managed to delete the live copy of my calendar and upgraded the old copy to 4.7.6M (which stopped being maintained in April this year).

(In case it is relevant, bth of these copies were installed via the Softaculous app installer on my host's cPanel software.)

Hunting around my server, I found a database backup that my host produces overnight and have downloaded it to ensure I have a copy in my host should assume it is no longer needed and deletes it.

I tried using Using LuxCal's "Restore Database" facility using the 4.7.5 SQL backup file I had found on the server, but that produced errors when restored into the 4.7.6 version of the calendar and leaves me stuck on the Database Management screen.

(I guess that maybe either because the backup file is for a different database name to the one I am importing it into or because of some change in the format of the files between the two versions.)

What can I do to get Luxcal to import the 4.7.5 backup file into my live 4.7.6 calendar?
