                        Hi,



You cannot see the restore link because the installation does not exist on your new server.

So to restore your installation you can follow these steps:

1) Make a new dummy installation of Moodle on your new server and take a note of the installation id.

2) You can see the installation id when you click on the backup link of
your new installation the last characters in the url will be your id.
For eg: "backup&insid=106" in this case 106 is the id.

3) Now change the installation id in the name of the backup zip that you
have copied of your old installation. In your case
"moodle.2.2011-05-10_09-07-04.zip" is your backup in this
moodle.(2).2011-05-10_09-07-04.zip your installation id is "2" now
replace the new installation id. For eg: if your new installation id is
"5" then the name of your backup zip should be
"moodle.5.2011-05-10_09-07-04.zip"

4) Then place the zip in the softaculous_backups folder and restore your
new moodle dummy installation that you made in the 1st step.

5) And you're done you have restored your installation successfully.

                        Hi,



I forgot to mention that the Directory name and Database name of your
dummy installation should be same as that of your old installation.
