We are in the process of migrating some courses off of Moodle. I have one set of courses that will not backup. I am a network engineer that has never worked with Moodle before asked to figure out how to backup these courses. I receive no error message, the backup process just spins for hours then eventually the page times out. I have adjusted all the timeout settings in PHP and FastCGI, this does not seem to help. Even just backing up a small amount of the course does the same thing. Is there a way I can just copy the courses out manually without running the backup? I have been unable to find how to figure out the location of the course. This install has 3 drives with Moodle folders on them, it was done by a previous engineer that is no longer with us so I am not even sure what location is live. Can someone point me in the direction to copy these files off? Thanks
