Ivan and Fernando from Todo10 took my dusty database and gave me a working Forum.
They have installed my old db to a new domain, and have been maintaining/hosting my forum for about 2 months now,
so this post is not derived from my first impression.
I'm just a one person operation, so I...
Facebook can, and does kill any group on Facebook anytime it wants.
They don't have to explain why, and they don't explain why.
How can you trust a system that does not belong to you or at least does not have a proper "customer" service?
Yep, that's the login info the host set up and that doesn't work ('The requested user 'xxxx_xxxx' could not be found')
I asked the login/user info from the previous admin of the forum, we'll see if he could pull-up the old credentials.
Hi,
I uploaded xenforo_2.1.8-Patch-1 for a fresh install and my host installed it for me.
After the host created a new db and imported my old database from 5 years ago (it had a different domain and host at that time),
the forum directory tells me 'The site is currently being upgraded'...
Thank you for the reply, Brogan.
What is PMA? Is that phpMyAdmin?
I don't have the database on web in database/table form. That's why I can not 'export' in any other way.
Hi all,
I am moving my forum to a new domain, and I have mySQL database on my local computer.
The new host is ready with xenForo 2.8 installed and working properly with an empty db.
(cPanel and phpMyAdmin is available through my account at my host)
I uploaded my old db via ftp on to my server...
Thank you, Brogan.
I started to work on it and making changes.
The former domain will not be used, and because the ownership has changed, I don't need a redirection.
I hope I understood that right.
I just want to retain the old discussions and move the forum users to the new domain.
That's...
I don't know what else to do to go on with the old forum in the new domain.
I want to be able to keep all of the previous users and the discussions from the old forum.
Installation works btw.
The trouble is, there's no sign from the previous forum after XenForo import external data feature is used (and what does "External Data" mean, by the way?)
There's only 1 user in the new forum, and that's me, the admin account.
Hi,
Although the install and import instructions are written clearly, I have this problem.
I created an empty new db using phpMyAdmin first. "NewDB"
Then instaled XenForo, using the name of the new db.
No problems there.
I created another database, named it "OldDB",
then imported that database...
