Transferring Directory To A New Host

[brainegg]

I was wondering what the "best procedure" was for transferring my already established directories to a new host. Should I re-setup the script from the beginning and then upload the MySQL databased through the administrator panel? I've tried transferring scripts before and something always seems to go wrong with the setting. Especially for the location settings.

Oops. I meant to post this in the Esyndicat forums.

) well, the procedure is very similar

if your both servers have cPanel you can do a full backup and then simply restore it from your cPanel

or you can do that manually:

1. copy all your files to a new server
2. set correct writable permissions
3. make a dump of your database and import in your new DB
4. change includes/config.inc.php file with the new values
5. make few changes in config table to display correct URL value

That's all in general. There can be also some specific issues related to servers
