moving vbulletin to new vps

[Mr. Burns]

i had made a test copy to put on the new host to test, it worked great, tho the live site has updated posts since i put the copy on the new host, how do i bring those posts over essentially over riding what i have currently their, is it as simple as a new db dump and then importing the new dump to the new server?

Best way to transfer the database through the hosting of shell , Use the move command If large forum

Type a command base download:

mysqldump DATABASEUSER -u DATABASENAME -p > /home/USER/public_html/backupday

DATABASEUSER = Username databas
DATABASENAME = name databas
USER = Site username

Open your FTP program and download the public_html folder rule
SQL file will download to your computer.

Then how to lift your new site file the tlent another time, type the following command

mysql DATABASEUSER -u DATABASENAME -p < /home/USER/backupday.sql

Finished lesson

thats just the thing old server host is crap, i had to download a copy of the db thru vbulletin today as the old server under phpadmin said export.php was not found, and the ssl access on the old server, doesn't recognize any commands

You need to manually save the rule on your computer then lifted on the new vps

[Mr. Burns]

is there a easier way as the old host is basically not reliable to ask to save the rule in the vps or even fix the server as when i put the forum on the new server all the issues we were having vanished.
