RE: [xwiki-users] [OFF TOPIC] Sadness
Hi, I have been running an XWiki server on my PC for about 3 weeks and have been entering a lot of useful information about our companies IT Systems. This is currently on a Windows XP machine running Tomcat and MySQL. I am in the process of setting up a Dell server running either aLinux or Debian Linux to act as a permanent home for the XWiki. If I follow the installation instructions on setting up a new XWiki - can I then just copy the XWiki database over from the Windows PC and set access rights to the XWiki user or is it more complicated than that (if so can anyone point me in the direction of any documentation) Cheers Tom Stone Network Administrator
Just use the mysql export and you should be fine if the mysql versions are not too different. Ludovic Tom Stone a écrit :

As Ludovic mentioned, just export the data from the original database. I use the "mysqldump" command for this. Then simply load that data into the new database using "mysql < dumpfile" with appropriate options for user and password. I've done this a few times when moving between two Linux boxes here. -- Brian D. Switzer --> herkamur [at] canada [dot] com trains: http://bswitzer.railfan.net/ ships: http://www.herkamur.ca/canal/
