Copying database

[apexrg]

I have a site that I am losing to someone else in court. Before I officially lose it, is there any way for me to move my images, pricing etc to a cloned site?

cloned site is up and running, just no products, images, or pricing

Not sure how to do it, without mucking it up

Thanks in advance

Sorry to hear about that! I would assume (hope) it's just the domain name.....


Follow instruction on "moving servers"

Backup your Database in the oscmax admin panel.

Copy the whole site - Ether zip it then download or use FTP to download it.... (including the backup file)

Up load to new server - RERUN the install program. Login to the admin with the default user/pass...."restore" the old DB......

Done...

Optional...update NEW place with new template/look/feel/data etc...

Optional....update the old site to reflect the the move to the new domain

Hopefully the court will not preclude you from opening up a NEW competing store. Please be careful if you lose property writes that are deemed part of the old site - including copyrights to text/images/logos/names/descriptions/similar domain names etc...
Consult your lawyer. Unless you like to be back in court with even more issues....
