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
cd
into thehtml
directory for the respective domain.
- Create an archive of the
te3
directory insidehtml
directory on the old server:tar czf archive.tar.gz te3
- Download
archive.tar.gz
to your local machine using your favorite FTP client and then upload it (in binary mode) into thepublic_html
folder on the new server.
- Connect to your new server using SSH protocol and
cd
into thehtml
for the respective domain.
- Extract files from the
archive.tar.gz
using the following command:tar xzf archive.tar.gz
You should have ate3
directory (including all the sub-directories and files) insidehtml
directory 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.php
into yourpublic_html/your_TE3_directory/
directory in binary mode. Chmodinstall.php
to 755.
- Point your browser to
http://www.yourdomain.com/your_TE3_directory/install.php
and 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.
