Server move (how to move your TE3 to a new server)
To preserve all the data, you will have to copy te3 directory inside html directory from your old server to your new server. There are several methods how this can be done, we'll describe just one of them here:
- Connect to your old server using SSH protocol and
cdinto thehtmldirectory for the respective domain.
- Create an archive of the
te3directory insidehtmldirectory on the old server:tar czf archive.tar.gz te3
- Download
archive.tar.gzto your local machine using your favorite FTP client and then upload it (in binary mode) into thepublic_htmlfolder on the new server.
- Connect to your new server using SSH protocol and
cdinto thehtmlfor the respective domain.
- Extract files from the
archive.tar.gzusing the following command:tar xzf archive.tar.gz
You should have ate3directory (including all the sub-directories and files) insidehtmldirectory on your new server now.
- If name servers for the domain are still pointing to the old server (which is usually the case), you will have to make sure your local machine resolves the domain on the new server in order to access the TE admin interface through the web browser on the new server. You will have to add the domain with the new IP to the “hosts” file on your local machine.
- Extract the installation package you have downloaded and upload
install.phpinto yourpublic_html/your_TE3_directory/directory in binary mode. Chmodinstall.phpto 755.
- Point your browser to
http://www.yourdomain.com/your_TE3_directory/install.phpand follow the instructions.
- After the installation is completed, you must delete
install.php(recommended), or chmod it to 0.
It is extremely important to test if .htaccess protection is working properly.
