Upgrading and migrating information
Posted: Wed Jul 05, 2006 1:51 pm
Hi,
I just want to explain how I upgraded and migrated data between servers.
quite straight forward after several attemps.
First of all, I upgraded from 9.x to 10... Uploading the new files into the server.. following the instructions on the screen and done.
Backup of the databases and uploaded into the new server.
backup of the home directory, and uploaded into the new server WITHOUT "serendipity_config_local.inc.php"..
After this, start the serendipity into the new server. And.. Voila! ... new setup. Link it to the existing database coming from the old server.. new path ways by default.. just maybe a minor change in the .httacccess and done.
I hope it will help
Thanks
Gonzalo.
