extract plesk 8.1 backup files

Submitted by wizap on Thu, 01/24/2008 - 00:10.

Package mpack is required in order to extract the backup contents.

# apt-get install mpack
# zcat /path/to/backup_file > backup_file.mime
# munpack backup_file.mime

The result is a set of tar and sql files that contain domains' directories and databases. Untar the directory as needed.

For example, to restore the httpdocs folder for the DOMAIN.TLD domain:

# tar xvf <DOMAIN.TLD>.htdocs

munpack cannot handle files that are "huge"
