Server migration for dummies?

Featured Replies

Posted

Before I could upgrade mt 3.4 community to IPS4, I had to move to an upgraded server.  Migration from one server to the other is totally on me and I have NO idea what I am doing.  I have looked extensively for support pages on this, but nothing really lays it out.  I am with godaddy and they will do it for $100 but it takes 7 days.  Thats a long time to be down.  Any help?

Thanks!  I am terrified I will screw this up.

 

It's actually quite easy. But make sure to take a backup just in-case something goes wrong.

If you get stuck or need an advice/help, feel free to hit me up.

I downloaded my DBs, I have 2 of them in my community, and then imported them to the new server using phpmyadmin.  I can download all the files from my site using phpmyadmin also?

 

Actually, I got one upload and already facing error messages.

If you don't need this done right this instant, I can do it for a fee and we can set up a time for the migration.  It certainly wouldn't take 7 days to complete.
