Always backup all files before changing servers. We moved houses last week, and I took the opportunity to change machines for our server. We needed to get a new ISP because we are too far out for DSL anymore. So after three years as a server and three years as our desktop before that I decided to retire the Power Center Pro 180(g3 400 upgrade) and give it to the boys. Maybe see if Jaguar runs on it first, like to have that on it for them if possibe. I initially changed our homepage to reflect the move and thought no more about it till I had time. Last night I realized that the database that runs the website is still on the old machine. The one with no usable IP address, a quick login to it to set it to get a new IP, back to the new machine, connect to the old with phpMyAdmin. works great except that everytime I select the database i want the url changes from ip to hostname, and that host is the new server, file not found. Cocoa Mysql cant connect to it either because I didnt allow any connections from my new IP, didnt know Id need to. look look up the format for mysqldump and ssh in. works great except it shts down the connection in the middle of typing. On the old machine do the dump and try to scp it to the new machine, connections to the new ip timeout. Back to the new server and scp from that direction. Download Carbon Copy Cloner amd backup the new server to an external drive.
