angle4cor Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 Hello, After weeks of testing, I am about to finally make my board live to the public. I will have to move it to another server and under new domain. I would like to ask here first though to avoid problems in the future. Steps I am planning to do: Moving files from public_html to its destination on another server. Changing domain name in the IPS Client Area. Changing domain name in the conf_global.php. And thats it? Should I also change some fields in the database? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Randy Calvert Posted January 27, 2023 Posted January 27, 2023 That’s generally it. You might need to rebuild your system cache from the ACP support area.
Marc Posted January 28, 2023 Posted January 28, 2023 Dont change anything directly in the database. All you do is the above. You actuallky move the site, change the domain, and then reset in the client area. 🙂
Alexandru Posted January 29, 2023 Posted January 29, 2023 (edited) Hello, For the old server. 1. Download the public_html installation of your Invisioncommunity software. 2. Download your database from PHPMyAdmin. New server. 1. Upload your downloaded installation "FROM THE OLD SERVER" into public_html. 2. Create a database with a user and add that user to the database with all privileges. 3. Import the database from your old server into the newly created database. 4. Go to your config and make sure that everything is correct in that file, (Base_url needs to be changed, and the database name + database user + database password). That's how I would do it. If you don't understand how I explained it, please contact me privately and I will help you move your installation to a new server. Enjoy! Edited January 29, 2023 by drawncodes
