Trying to transfer wordpress site and database
Posted: Sun Jan 15, 2012 9:47 am
I need some help with transferring database and Wordpress, from another web server - to Sonic.net
I have followed directions in Wordpress; and set-up a new database in the new Sonic.net account; I then imported the data from the previous Wordpress database new one; then transferred all the Wordpress files - being precise in readdressing the wp-config.php file to the newly created database.
It doesn't work and I get a fatal error with file not found response.
I tried it another way by installing the Wordpress with the Sonic.net add-on, and it created it's own database with a directory that was inaccessible to us - not in my Sonic.net workspace.
