Transfer site to Joomla for the impatient

Consider the situation where you have a website on joomla on one hosting (we assume it to be local, eg, Denver) and you want to move it to another (eg hosting provider). We need the following tools: file dumper.php ( Website Developer ) For import-export database and jsys.php ( download ) For file operations . For jsys.php say thanks Dead Krolik'u (ex-joom.ru)

1. Copying a database Joomla.

• Go to the folder with the files system (in Denver is Z: home imya_lokalnogo_sayta www) fill the files there dumper.php and jsys.php
• In the file configuration.php look
  • the name of the database used in the string $ mosConfig_db = 'joomladb';. Ie In our case, the name "joomladb"
  • database user name in the string $ mosConfig_user = 'joomlauser';
  • password database in a string $ mosConfig_password = 'password';
  • host the database on line $ mosConfig_host = 'localhost'; note if $ mosConfig_host not equal to 'localhost' then go back to the version of Article Transfer site to Joomla
• type in the browser http://имя_локального_сайта/dumper.php
• introduce our data 'joomlauser' and 'password'
• click export base.
• in the folder Z: home imya_lokalnogo_sayta www backup should see a new file (database dump)

2. Copying files. We go back into a file folder system (Z: home imya_lokalnogo_sayta www) and archiving all files in zip format called file mysite.zip.

3. Preparation hosting Joomla (ONLY if the database on the hosting is not installed). Set up on hosting a new database in the admin panel hosting. Create a user to remember their username and password, and set up base.

4. Moving and unpacking. Upload files and mysite.zip jsys.php on hosting with ftp to a folder such as www, htdocs or http, the folder itself set write permission (CHMOD 777) and remember what was right before the change

type in the browser http://имя_локального_сайта/jsys.php. We go into the file manager, extract mysite.zip

set permissions for www, htdocs or http as it was before

type in the browser http://имя_локального_сайта/dumper.php

indicate there login and password database hosting, import it into a dump

5. Edit the configuration file Joomla. Open configuration.php and enter the data obtained in Section 3 or from the host.

• $ MosConfig_db - the name of the database on the hosting
• $ MosConfig_user-user database hosting
• $ MosConfig_password - password to access the database hosting
• $ MosConfig_live_site - then specify the domain name (no www)
• $ MosConfig_absolute_path - Konevo way from server folder to the root folder of the site - can be calculated using the phpinfo () or ask the host, usually something like / home / vash_domen / www. Or enter the site and see - usually an error indicating the variety of ways. All of them are from the root
• $ MosConfig_cachepath-way from Konevo server folder to the cache folder

7. Placing the access rights. "Directory on media, images / stories, images / banners cache and append permissions (chmod) - 777. On the other folders in order to improve safety reserve for files 755 and -644. To install new extensions and configuration changes will expose the right individual.
