you have an option in your admin ACP, to make a BACKUP of your database..


> General > Backup database

did you make it befor you moved to you new server?
not?
than you have a big problem!
or ask for a mysql database backup from old server..

Hi,

why not the easy way?

ACP > Database Backup > Create one

Copy the .sql file from /data/database/whatever.sql into the same
directory on the new server.

ACP > Database Backup > Locate the previous added whatever.sql and restore.

Legend: whatever means: backup + date_stamp + time_stamp.sql


For example:

Copying a 4i (online) into 4i Mobile Server (offline)

- Install a out of the box 4i
- Copy your data folder
- Import your db backup
