cPanel Importer

About

LxRoot's cPanel importer tool allows you to migrate a cPanel account to LxRoot. Websites should work exactly as they did on cPanel, though some proprietary cPanel features are not supported and will not be copied across.

Included in Import

  • Domains: Primary, Sub, Add-on, and Parked domains.
  • Data: All files and databases.
  • Email: Accounts (with passwords/data) and forwarders.
  • Config: SSL certificates, Cron jobs, and FTP accounts.
  • DNS: MX and TXT (SPF) records.

Not Supported

  • PostgreSQL databases.
  • Wildcard subdomains & Catch-all emails.
  • Autoresponders, Calendars, and Contacts.
  • Mailman settings & Directory privacy.
  • Existing statistics & Custom error pages.
Compatibility

The LxRoot cPanel importer is compatible with full cPanel account backups generated on versions 102 LTS, 104, 106, and 108.
