Back-Up Transfer Form one Concrete to another?

Permalink
Is there a possibility to to run sort of a backup from one concrete and then put it on an other one so that the to sites will be identical.

Maybe it sounds strange but when I make a concrete local and it works and than I upload it to my website provider it wont work I`ll get an error 500.

So I discover that if I start building the website ON the server than it will work but I don't want to start all over again because making the website was 30 hours of my work.

So I want to ask the community or admin or someone who knows if it is possible.

My first guess would be something the new server doesn't like with the .htaccess file.

I do this whole-site transfer thing fairly regularly. I build everything in my dev environment, deploy to my clients staging server (my clients are all design/web shops, and have their own hosting arrangements).. then once the staging and testing is complete do the transfer again to the final live site (my clients' client).

It's basically a matter of:

Use phpmyadmin (or similiar) and export db - import on new server.
Copy all files (maintaining web server write permissions on files, packages and config and 755 on the htmldiff.py)
Edit config/site.php to reflect database and server name.

Chmode 755, 777 etc is different kind of acess permissions. You can set them using your FTP-program.
