Moving EE

[Ewan]

I've pretty much got EE (1.5b5) up and running the way I want it.

I now want move it from the /gallery folder where I was testing it to the root of my website.

Is there going to be more to it than moving the files and then changing the path settings in the editor or is my mindless optimism getting the better of me again? ;)

Apart from moving files and editing new database login info you must of course backup the database in old server, download the sql dump, upload the sql dump to new server and restore the dump to new server. Set paths AFTER that.

PS. with EE backup it is possible to restore new server from old one directly, too, but normally that would require some firewall setting-up and is in this case really not neccessary method.

Phew! It worked.

Thanks.
