Posted: Fri Nov 22, 2013 10:55 am Post subject: Migrate ALL to another server |
|
|
Abyss Web Server X2 (v 2.9.0.1)
Hello,
I have an "old" windows2000server with Abyss
Now want to migrate ALL abyss configuration to a new 'windows7', and shutdown my windows2000server.
Is it possible to have a configuration backup ?
Thanks.
Waca. |

Hello waca--
Yes, I did this a few (5?) years ago and made the jump from W2000 to Windows7, completely hopping over XP. It was really not hard, not the Abyss part. I also was upgrading my box at the same time. Reinstalling MySQL was a little more complicated.
If I remember correctly I simply copied *everything* that was in my server installation files, which I had as C:\webserver and created the same folder on the new box, .i.e., C:\webserver
Then, I ran the Abyss installation .exe and chose "upgrade." Bang! It worked easily. If you are changing from 32 bit to 64 bit, I am not sure what if any changes you might need (I had installed windows 7 as 32 bit so I could still run some older and unrelated program files.)
But yes, it is not only possible but quite easy...at least it was for me.
Regards,
Axis |
