Migrating and rebuilding entire site
Permalink
I manage a Concrete5 site that's not on a hosting account I'm admin to. After getting limited access to the shared hosting account I've managed to download all the files and the database. I need to reassemble everything in a new account with a new host. The site is currently on 5.6.1.2, so I'd like to set up with the latest version and then migrate the remaining files and stitch everything together. I'm not familiar with this process so what's the best approach?
Make a new database, upload the data from old database.
Upload files into directory in file manager.
Make new DB user
Enter new DB & DB user info in the .config file
Go towww.www.yourdomain.com/index.php/dashboard... (assuming you had turned off pretty urls first)
Run automated jobs
Should be good as new. Hope that helps.
