I really look for an automated server migration script, alone the installation of all the software installed on the source server would take me days, function not guranteed. The current status is, that I tried that already, and the result is: CWP working, transferred websites not working fully, email not working. That can not be the solution There must be a working transfer script out there, no matter what you have on the source server, just using rsync and changing IP adress/hostname everywhere it is referred to. Am I the only one who has this problem?
I usually install cwp first and do this and it works every time, different hardware doesn’t matter and the kernel will take care of it. in some cases efi boot cause issues in this situation move the users manually Red Hat Customer PortalHow to easily migrate local users and groups from one sys...All local users and groups (within a certain UID/GID number range) need to be migrated from one old system to another freshly-installed system without manually creating said users on the new system.
where how?
Yes I tried but I got errors
Hello, I have a problem when converting from Apache Only to Nginx Only. All sites stopped working and I faced the error: 404 Not Found nginx/1.14.1 Although I rebuilt Apache, it did not work. How can I fix the error?
