I want to:

a) backup my board
b) create a folder by the same name as the current folder, on a different domain
c) install the backup in the created folder on the new domain

1) the website on the new domain has another username.

What will be the procedure I will have to use?


Thanks guys!

d) the website on the new domain has another username, so the prefix is different:
mensi_mbb334 on the old one
waxi_mbb334 on the new one. Is this causing the error?

When I try to install the mybb backup from phpmyadmin I get this error.

For each of the CREATE TABLE statements modify them to be CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS [table_name] rest of stuff. Once you have done that, you will need to edit the settings.php file to change $settings['bburl'] to point to your new url. You will also need to update the cookie settings in that file. Then log into the ACP->Settings and change the settings there.
