Migrating from cpanel to da, not migrates mails

[samuelmf]

Hi guys, i'm trying to restore a backup from cpanel on my DA, i have made the backup works, except for:
It restores everything except the mail accounts and it's contents.
It only restore de content of my home directory.
What must i do to restore my cpanel mail accounts and it's contents.

Is this option work?

When i click +New import
I fill all my cpanel server info, but i get this error:

And no, my password is ok.


Thanks in advance.

Did you add you DA ip to your Cpanel firewall? And vice versa?

I fill all my cpanel server info, but i get this error:

I'm not sure but I think that option is only for all accounts.

Check this part for a single account.

Yes friend, i did it

 

[Richard G]

And no, my password is ok.

Which password are you trying?

Did you try the method from the docs I pointed to?

 

[samuelmf]

Hi @Richard G Yeah i already tryed that method, seems that is only working for all except for mail accounts.

 

[ericosman]

IMAP sync an idea?
I know it's a pain in the butt... but you have to do something

 

[Richard G]

seems that is only working for all except for mail accounts.

And when is it asking for that password and which password are you using? Da pass, cpanel whm pass, cpanel user pass, root pass, mail pass? Which one?

If you have a modern license then imapsync is present if I'm not mistaken.

You can also send in a ticket for this if you have a modern license.

@Richard G when on that cpanel import section i asked for the password i pust my whm server root password.
How can i know which lic type i have?
I have purchased the standard directadmin license for 29 usd month.
I will take a look to imapsync as you and @ericosman said.

Than you are good, your Directadmin (DA) has al functions ;-)

[ericosman]

Yess, old licenses are without certain functions, but you have all. Some you just have to download.

 

[samuelmf]

It have an option on the DA Dashboard or must i use cli?

 

[ericosman]

It’s an option in the dashboard

 

[samuelmf]

Ohhh ok ok, i see it as user level.
Thanks, i will take a look about how to use it

 

[Richard G]

i pust my whm server root password.

Oke have you also tried that accounts password?
Because if it says wrong password it must be wrong, so if you pass is correct, chance is you maybe need the users password.

Indeed your license is a normal license, so modern.
