How to moving main server to new server

#1 Postby verzing » Aug 03, 2011 10:00 am

Point your domain to main server ip address.(do this first because dns need time to resolve)

1st: backup everything from main server (all file and sql)
2nd: upload all file to new main server and import sql file.
3rd: upload file install.cgi to cgi-bin folder in new server then run it .

done!

Thank you, verzing.

I'm about to move to new server. I have only one server that serves both purposes (File & Main). Let's see if everything goes well...

If anyone else has got any other instructions/info, please share here.

Hey, I moved to new server and I followed your steps and now I'm getting 500 Internal Server Error when I visit the home page.
If I open /files/index.html in my browser then it opens perfectly.

.htaccess file is exactly where it should be.
Apache config (.htaccess -> AllowOverride All)

Am I doing anything wrong? Please help me

Check your apache error_log for details.
It could be file or folder chmod access or binary Session.pm incompatibility.

I switched to some other server and everything is fine now. I have no idea what was wrong with it.

Anyways, thanks for the comment, PilgrimX182.

how many ip do you have in your current server ? if you have more than 1 ip just create new file server with different ip on same server then transfer all file from old file server to new file server .
after that move your main site to new dedicated server.
