    Moving web site

    Posted 15 years 8 months ago
    • Hello.

      I have website installed on goddady.com and want to move it with all containing information to another host.
      I tried to use joomla pack, you can see result here: playaion.lt (original web: aion-lithuania.com ).

      Web consists of joomla 1.5 and phpBB3.

      Any idea how to move it correctly?

    • How far do you get in the process of moving the site?

      Are you able to run the install ad get to the last screen?

      Where is the phpBB3 database, in the Joomla database, in in a separate database?

      Along with the error for the site, I get 'The requested URL /administrator was not found on this server.' when trying to access the administrator page.

      I suggest uploading the zipped backup that JoomlPack creates and extracting on the server, then running the install.

      This should solve permission errors and prevent any files from being missed or corrupted during the FTP process.

      Also, if you're using RokBridge, disable it temporarily before you create your back up and change the authentication method from RokBridge to the default while you are making the move.

      After you move the site and the phpBB3 DB, you can enable RokBridge and change the authentication back.

    • I have already deleted the messed-up back up.

      The way I was installing: I created backup (in .jpa format), extracted it via jpa formatter, then uploaded all files, and accessed install. It all went through without errors (in mysql info screen, I changed information to current server). After install I deleted installation directory, and web appeared non templated (text version only without correct module positions) and in up part there were errors concering Csj or smth like that.

      PhpBB3 and joomla are on different databases. I will try to install with rokbridge disabled, if it won't help I will tell.

      Thanks for tip

    • Why not try the zipped format?

      I never use jpa format.

      Have you searched of posted on the JoomlaPack forum?
