[closed] Migrating to a new server

    Everything was going too smoothly. Machform's up and running, looking great and taking enquiries.

    Now I need to move my domain to a new server :(

    Here's what I plan to do - did I miss anything?

    1. Backup up all the ap_ tables
    2. Set up a database on the new server
    3. Install Machform on new server
    4. Restore tables to new database
    5. Change DNS settings to new server
    6. Wait....
    7. Double check old server for anything that got submitted while DNS migration was happening

    Sound about right?

    What a timing.. I'm in the process of moving this site to a new server too!

    Yes, those steps sounds great to me. One thing though, don't forget to copy your "machform/data" folder to the new server.
