I'm trying to move my whole website from Bluehost to Ehost, I have downloaded all the files and databases, I have set up a test site on my new server, 4 weeks later I'm still trying to access all the listings.
I installed OS on my new server form the lastest ZIP file, I have uploaded all the files i have created a database uploaded the slq DB file. All looks ok but I cannot see my listing 360 of them. I enter a test listing it show ok. I have done everything I can think of cleared the DB made new one's pointed the config setup to the new DB I have had every error you could think about. Just now I thought I would go back and try the first thing I done " backup the OS website on my old server and import data into my new one, Error message: There was a problem importing data to the database So I think ok I'll export= backup the new server website and them import the one I just backed up "exported" error message: There was a problem importing data to the database how can this be if the backup system does not work how do you get your data back? I am still running on two servers now which is defeating the reason I was switching servers, COST: Has any one any idea's how to do this I have tried nearly everything I have seen in forums without success, I see this problem back dates 4 or 5 years with no solutions surly an export and import facility should be part of a standard OSCLASS core. The import plugin is next to useless, you might as well retype all your listing in by hand. Not unless I'm missing something?
