I currently have an active forum hosted on a shared server, and I want to move it to a dedicated server hosted with a different company.
The forum is currently at www.example.com. I want to migrate it to the new server and test it out for a couple of weeks before I redirect traffic to the new server. So, I'm trying to setup the forum on the new server with www.a-new-example.com.
My problem is that when I create the new vBulletin install and then import the database from the old forum, all the cookie settings are to www.example.com. So, once I restore the database on the new server, I can't login through admincp or in the forums.
Is there an easy way to fix this? Ideally, I want to test everything out with www.a-new-example.com and then change the domain in vBulletin, and point www.example.com to the new server.
