Help please.
I'm attempting to move a client’s site to a new server with the least amount of effort. The site uses "Release 1.1-RC4 27-08-2004" and I'm new to phpwcms. I'd like to move it “as is” if possible (unless it's less effort to upgrade it to the latest version). Is there documentation on the steps to do a “move” such as I’m undertaking?
What I've done:
1) Uploaded all the files to a new server with a new domain name.
2) Changed config.inc.php with new database and site values.
3) Modified a config.xml file to point to the new MySQL information / server.
4) Modified file permissions to those in the latest installation instructions (not an exact match on file structure and file names).
The result:
1) I’m able to login to the admin page in phpwcms (using carried over information).
2) I’m able to pull up most pages at the new site.
3) However, for just a few pages I receive errors similar to the following:
a) Case 1:
Warning: main(Config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /yada/yada/yada/myaccount/library/classes/Configuration.php on line 2
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'Config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php;/yada/yada/yada/myaccount/library\;/yada/yada/yada/myaccount/library\PEAR\;') in /yada/yada/yada/myaccount/library/classes/Configuration.php on line 2
**** Note the “\” in the include_path.
b) Case 2:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mark() in /yada/yada/yada/ library/classes/Common/ErrorList.php on line 5
Is it best to load the latest version and migrate the files, or, can I simply copy the files to a replica as I'm presently attempting to do? I appreciate your recommendations.
Thanks,
Rich
Move Existing Site to New Server
Re: Move Existing Site to New Server
To all concerned,
Case 1 has been resolved. The problem had nothing to do with phpwcms installation all to do with customized software.
Working on Case 2 next. Probably similar issue.
