Backups of file

Hi I found an article for backup erpnext in here Backup & Restore - #2 by revant_one it is say that there is 2 backups one for database and one for files. I ran the command and try to copy the backups but I only found the database backup. Is this happened because I only used it as a production and not in the server which many computer connected to the erpnext? If this not the case, what is the files actually?

@ezraluandre

Welcome !

The command for backup database + all files:

bench --site backup --with-files

It backups all files relatives with your site.

Hope this helps.

It show error with this description
Error: no such option: --with-files

Try this then:

bench backup --with-files

or precisely the previous command:

bench --site XXX backup --with-files

Some more clue and/or advise:

It works like a charm @krnkris, so basically I got 2 backup files, is that correct? One with name local files and one with the name local private files?

@ezraluandre

Great!

Yest those are your files relative to the directories.

If you restore some time have to give read/write rights to these, to let ERPNext handle it.

Have a wonderful day!
