Hello, I am shifting my forum from 1 server to another, I have extracted the MySql, what should I do next?
Install your board on the other server.
import the database on the other server.
i can you had different names and table prefix, then pls edit ./inc/config.php in corresponding with the new imported database
regards
Easier way:
1. Download all files from your old server
2. Edit the details for the connection to the database in the file inc/config.php
3. Upload all files to your new webspace
4. CHMOD the folders uploads and uploads/avatars/ to 777 and the files inc/config.php and inc/settings.php to 666 or 777 (depends on the server configuration, they must be writable)
5. Import the dump into the new database
DONE
If you use Zaher's way you have to upload the folder uploads and the folders containing the graphics of installed themes in addition to the steps he described.
How about the post etc? or how do I extract the mysql?
