CAUTION: Restoring a backup of an entire confluence site (consisting of multiple spaces) will:
Confluence supports Backward Compatibility for site backups (note: not space backups). You can only successfully restore backups of a site from an older version of Confluence to a newer version of Confluence. |
There are two ways to restore a site from a backup file:
- Restore a site from the Confluence Setup Wizard: This restores the data into a new instance of Confluence.
- Restore a site from the Administration Console: This restores data into the current instance of Confluence.

If your daily backup zips cannot be restored for whatever reason, but you have both a database backup and backups of your confluence home directory, then it is still possible to restore from these backups.

You can not restore a particular space only from the entire site backup when the backup contains more then one space.
