Access files stored in pufferpanel directory (not pufferpanel instance) on oracle cloud host
So for some time on my server I was using a backup service that was backing up to directly outside of the pufferpanel directory, and now I need to restore a backup from there, so is there a way I could do this? Thanks in advance.

Really depends on how you were backing up and what service you are using
If you were just making a copy of the server to another directory (If that's what I understood) you can use the
cp command.
Example:
You will need to delete the server files to improve consistency and not mix the 2 versions(you also would have to chown the files back to the pufferpanel user, so the permissions are correct)
The problem I'm actually having is that I can't figure out how to access the pufferpanel directory.
apparently it's under .var
but when I ssh into the oracle cloud free host ubuntu oracle linux, these are all the directories that I see.
ubuntu@altaeria2:~$ 1s -a
. .. .bash_history .bash_ logout .bashrc .cache .local .profile .selected editor .ssh .sudo_as_admin_ successful duckdnsIt's /var/lib/pufferpanel
Yeah that's not one of these directories
Because you're looking at your home directory.... not in the path provided.
Well that's the question I'm asking, how would I look in the path provided?
cd to it....?
It's /var/lib/pufferpanel
ah thank you
when I tried to cd to just var it didn't work for some reason
