Backup Restore from Cpanel to DA error

[manas23]

Hello guys,

I am having this error when I try to restore my cpanel backup file to DirectAdmin.
I am a newbie here so I don't know how to resolve the issues.
I bought a new vps and I have been trying to install my backup for 2 days.
Please any feedback is appriciated.

This one is common when restoring to an account with a different username. It will change the SQL prefix.

As far as everything else, did you restore a cpanel backup directly or convert it using the DirectAdmin script?

I basically downloaded the cpanel backup from my godaddy and transferred to my server with winscp.

Could you please tell me how to solve this problem?

What makes you think so? What issues do you have? Actually all subdomains can be added into parent's zone file.

It has to be converted before being restored so that it works with DirectAdmin's specific ways

I did everything you said and cancelled my cpanel from godaddy.
Pointed my domain to my vps ip adress in dns A section.
Now my website is completely down.
