Postnuke Install...

[tallship]

Hi,

 

I want to move a postnuke site as well as the supporting database.

 

the site is complete, all I need to do really is just install postnuke from a shell prompt and then upload my MySQL database. I can see where to move the database from in cPanel, but had a couple of questions:

 

1.) what do I do to have MySQL re-read the databases so that my database shows up? I know I'm going to have to create the user (DBO, if you will), and that's no problem since I can do that through cPanel.

 

2.) Are there any issues with installing Postnuke? Or do I just login, wget the tarball and install?

 

Any input/suggestions are appreciated

I am not familar with Post Nuke per se, however I've moved over several databases/programs when I came to TCH. All it was, was a matter of importing the database, installing the program files, and updating any config files via a text editor so that it has the right details (db name, username, password) etc.

 

Does that help? I'm sorry I can't give more specifics.

Since you don't have shell access unless you are on a dedicated server you will have to download the tar .gz file an upload it to your web space and use the File Manager in cPanel to extract it.
