Plz Help me to save my Valuable DATA

[nalinikpriya]

Few days back one of domains has expired due to some other reasons. Then I have downloaded all the files from root including DB. Now I had uploaded those files to the new domain and DB too. But my site is not working. I have no chance of entering into the old site (as it has already expired) to remove the site url from settings. So can you plz guide me to save my precious database. Plz guide me step wise. Site is not properly loading and also i am unable to log into my admin cp.

Steps to regain access and view forum:

1. Update Site URL in your license details i.e. what is new www.mynewsite.com - change that here so it is correct: https://members.vbulletin.com
2. Upload all old forum files to new server.
3. Create a New Database.
4. Import old database backup into new database.
5. Assign a database user to the database, also grant all privileges.
6. Edit file in /includes/ named config.php, change old database details to the new details i.e. new database name (of database you imported old data into) and also change database username+password. Re-upload the updated config.php so it overwrites the old.

Check to see if site loads. If it does then great, login and change the site URL in the settings, if it does not then you'll need to edit the database value for the bburl (site url) as it will think you're trying to login to the old url instead of the new due to the conflicting setting value and therefor may do a login loop per say.

You should have access to your server still. Shoot me a pm if you need help.

Sir, I did everything as you have mentioned in your reply.

1 Updated the address in the members area
2 Uploaded all the files to the server sql fiel to the DB
3 Edited the config

Now the site is pointing to the new domain but the site is not loaded well. Also failed to login to Admin panel. When I am trying to login It is pointing to the old site which the domain has already expired.

And how can i edit the database value for the bburl? can youplz guide me?

did you upload the DB file (.sql) or did you import it to your new DB?

[nalinikpriya]

Imported via phpmyadmin

If you can't access the AdminCP because you're in a redirect loop:
Open the datastore table in PHPMyAdmin and edit the entry that has "options" as title.
Replace all old occurrences of your domain name with the new one.

@Dave first of all I am very much thankful to your reply, as per your advise, I have changed the details of my old site in the said entry. Now I am able to login to my admin cp. There I have changed the links to new domain. But my home page is not working/loading properly. I don't know where I did mistake?

Have you cleared the cache under maintenance in the AdminCP?
Else you might have to give us a link to your site so we can see what's going wrong.
