  Problems with migration

  If you are asking for help, provide lots of detail so problems can be reproduced.
  
  Things to describe:
  operating system - CentOS release 5 (Final)
  version of ATutor - 1.5.5
  versions of php - 5.1.6
  version of mysq l - 5.0.22
  webserver & version - Apache/2.2.3
  
  Hi,
  sorry for my english, I'm italian.
  I need to migrate an ATutor and ACollab installations on another server.
  I have done these things:
  - I have copied both the directories (ATutoe and Acollab) on the new server.
  . I have done a dump of the database, and I have recreated it on the new server, with the same user and the same rights.
  
  ACollab is working, but ATutor doesn't work and a white page appears, and says that there isn't any language installed.
  
  What changes I have to do for migrate an ATutor installation?? :(
  
  Thanks!!!

  Re: Problems with migration

  Did you update the content path in the include/config.inc.php file?

  Re: Problems with migration

  Hi Greg,
  I updated the content directory, but the problem remains.
  I would like to know I exists a little techical guide/tutorial in which I could find the necessary steps to migrate an Atutor sistem from a server to another one.
  Something like this:
  1) Make a DB dump
  2).......................................
  3).......................................
  
  Because I'm a newbie on ATutor, but even if I have a little experience with Apache and PHP, I'm not able to solve this problem...
  :(
  
  Thanks!

  Re: Problems with migration

  The steps you took to move ATutor sound correct, copy the ATutor directory, and its content directory, and restore a dump from mysql. Adjust the content directory path in the config.inc.php file. Be sure you are using a plain text editor when adjusting the path.
