Moving Forum to New Server Which Has No Domain Name
I'm trying to move a copy of my forum over to a new server so that I can test it out before I make the final move.
My only problem is that the new server has no domain name linked to it yet so I am accessing it via IP only. How can I export a copy of my current database to the new site with just an IP address for the name? I tried turning off my live forum, changing the site name and forum url to http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX (the IP address) and then making a backup of the database but apparently when I try to import that database to my new server it errors out with the error code: ERROR at line 1: Unknown command '\_'. Is there any way I can test my site at an IP address before I make the move? Thanks. |
