I was given a dotnetnuke v4.9.5.5 database (sql-express about 300MB) and I am trying to get it up and running on a different server. I have tried:
Installing the 4.9 version and
loading the database into the app_data folder
loading the database through the SQL page under the host login (forwards to 404 page...)
installing the 5.x version and
loading the database into the app_data folder
loading the database through the SQL page under the host login (forwards to 404 page... again..)
All of which fail. I cannot find any support on this topic at all. What is the correct way to go about this?
EDIT: wrong info please close..
Here is a good blog on the topic HOW TO: Move a DotNetNuke installation .
The basics are:
Copy all the files and the database, the two are closely tied together.
Update the connection string in the web.config.
Update the portal alias' in the PortalAlias table.
If you don't have the rest of the site files, it may be very difficult. While the database will contain most of the site content, you may be missing some important pieces like skin files, module files, and content files.
So, the first thing you should do is see if you can get the files zipped up and sent to you. If so, it should be fairly easy to get the site up and running. You may have to update the ConnectionStrings in the web.config but otherwise it should run as it.
If you can't get the original files, you could try installing version 4.9.5 of DotNetNuke and replacing the supplied database with the database you were given. You'll need to post the error messages you get if it doesn't work out or consult someone with solid DotNetNuke experience.

I am trying to move a cakePHP project I completed a few months ago from a server (a friend's server) to my own web server.
I have set up a database and changed the database config file to match my database/login credentials.
when I navigate to http://babbage.cs.missouri.edu/~jam2z9/muve/index.php you see it looks as if it is a brand new project. When I go to just /muve instead of index.php it says I'm missing a ~jam2z9Controller file but I don't see any files from the old server that are like this to edit and change to ~jam2z9.
I feel like this should be a very simple transition once I hook up the database credentials but I'm just confused as to what my issue is?
All of the database tables in my new database are blank as I just imported the .sql file into phpMyAdmin. It all seems to be connecting fine but it will not go to the home page just the aforementioned generic cakephp screen?
In your bootstrap.php add the following line:
Configure::write('App.base', '/~jam2z9/');
This is because as far as Cake sees it you are hosting it in a sub-sub directory.
Edit: There are more details about not being able to use mod_rewrite here
Migrating wordpress sites between hosts can take a lot of time, especially when the hosting platforms are different.
I have been trying to migrate my sites from Cpanel to Mediatemple, but it seems like im just not getting it right.
There is various options
Use the guide they provide
https://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/1556/Migrating+your+websites+to+the+Grid#gs
When moving the files in this way the permissions of the files are not set properly and I would have to got back through them and figure out which ones need to change.
The database export from PHPMyAdmin also does not look the same it looks in the screenshot
Using InfiniteWP
To use InfiniteWP you must provide the url of the site and since I dont want to change the DNS until the site is moved this option does not seems to be ideal.
This option might work if its ok for the sites to be unavailable for a day or so while the DNS resolves...
But I don't want the sites to be unavailable
Using Mediatemples "one click apps" to install wordpress and then moving only the files that are unique to the site from the old host to the new host.
I would like to use this option
I think that the content of the WP-Content folder needs to be moved that the database needs to be moved.
My question is
- what folders and files in a standard wordpress install typically hardly ever changes from one site to the other.
- can I use the wordpress database export and import function to move the database from one site to the other.
Any help will be appreciated
Thank you
With InfiniteWP, you can use the clone an existing site command (which can be found in "Tool"->"Install / Clone WP") to migrate a site to a new server.
You have to use a temporary (sub)domain pointing to the new server.
To answer your questions :
/wp-content/ stores all your files and sometimes plugin files, wp-config.php is where your configuration is stored (e.g. credentials to access the database). Depending on your servers, the .htaccess files may be different.
I would recommend to create a dump file of your entire database using phpMyAdmin.
I am newbie in Composite, I already backup and download C1 websites (www.solve.sg), I also have installed (and working) Composite in localhost. So how to restore websites in localhost?.
I already used method to rename folder CompositesC1 to CompositesC1old, then extract and put extracted web in CompositeC1 folder at localhost but not working and gave me error.
Please help the right method how to read online backup websites and to read that at localhost
I dont know what Composite is, but you probably need to go back to your cPanel / backend of your webhost, dump the DB powering solve.sg and import that into your local instance.
Your hosting provider will probably have a tool called phpMyAdmin; go in there and find the 'Export' tab at the top of your DB and dump it out as a .sql file. You will then import that file into your local environment, probably also using phpMyAdmin.
You may also have to change around some of the settings files that show where your database is relative to your application.
i am looking into upgrading my magento community from 1.6.2 to 1.7.0.2.
First i will do this on my test server, but there are some errors during updating in magento connect, so i have to upload some files my self ...
but when i going to put these data into the live environment, can i just simply copy my data from the ftp to the live website?
Or are there also some new/changed settings in the database?
And if yes on the last question, which lines are changed?
I was able to successfully upgrade Magento from 1.6.1 to 1.7.using Connect Manager.
Here are the steps I had foung and followed
Go to yourdomain. com/magento/downloader/ (of course, make this
match your installation’s path.
Because I had installed Magento using tar.gz package provided with a skin I wanted to use, Magento Connect didn’t have all the
extensions listed for upgrading. I had to type
“connect20.magentocommerce.com/community/Mage_All_Latest” in the
“Install New Extensions / Paste extension key to install”
If you run into an error along the lines of “CONNECT ERROR: Package ‘Mage_All_Latest’ is invalid” repeated several times, once
for each package, it is because the files already exist, and you
have to remove a line of code in order for it to over-write data.
After everything has updated, you will probably have some errors. Make sure you clean the cache and session directories (delete
everything in /var/cache and /var/session)
If you receive a “500 Internal Server Error” it is more than likely because of file and folder permissions. It took .5 sec to
reset all of the permissions to what they needed to be.
If you receive a “Service Temporarily Unavailable The server is temporarily unable to service your request” error on a Magento
formatted header, it is probably because the store is set to offline
mode to prevent visitors from screwing up the installation process.
To fix this, delete the“maintenance.flag” file found in the root of
your magento installation directory.
Everything should be ready!
Avoid upload core library changes via ftp.
The fastest and more secure way is to patch your application using the diff files
patch -p0 -f < 1.6.2.0-1.7.0.0.diff
Then when you first visit your site Magento will automatically upgrade your db
best way to update is get a fresh mage zip 1.7.1 or whatever, and connect it to your current DB. When you go to index - the new install will update your DB to the latest MAge DB. This way you dont have to use connect etc. The mage zip has its own sql updates.
Make sure you put your current theme into the new install etc, and test it 1st on localhost etc.
