Transfer to new host
31 July 2012 at 8:50pm
Alright so I've dealt lots with Drupal and Wordpress. But never dealt with Silverstripe
The current site is searchwest.ca
I'm trying to transfer this site onto a new host. (i'm currently using edit host files to point domain to new host)
I'm pretty confident I've transferred all the files, from what I can gather DB settings are placed here:
/www/mysite/_config.php
Is there something that I've missed for this site to work? change .htaccess files?
Is there any documentation for this process? ....
thanks,
Adrian

What do you see / don't see? If you just see a white page, try putting your site into development mode by adding Director::set_environment_type('dev'); to mysite/_config.php

The process I've used is copying the files over to the new server, running install.php using a new DB, the editing the _config.php to point to the imported DB

This is what I keep getting.

I've tried using the method JAK pointed it out. Using a blank DB and editing after the fact.
that didn't work either.
I DL'd a new copy of silverstripe and it seems i'm dealing with an older version. Sorry never dealt with this CMS where can I find the version #?

Well that's just a depreciation warning. Shouldn't be causing an error, you should get more detail if you add ?is_dev=1 to the end of your URL. This will force it into dev mode and I've explicit errors.

If you are trying to move an existing site, you are probably running a version of 2.4. In this case, you will see the version information in the back end (/admin) at the bottom of the screen.
The most recent 2.4 version is 2.4.7, you can download it at http://www.silverstripe.org/assets/downloads/SilverStripe-v2.4.7.tar.gz or at https://github.com/silverstripe/sapphire/tree/2.4.7
For the moment I would recommend to stay at 2.4, 3.0 is a big upgrade and that version (currently 3.0.1) still has some bugs.

Hi:
Try the following:
1 - after moving all files to the new server , upload a copy of the old database to the new server too
2- use install.php & put in the info of the uploaded DB .
