We offer this as a paid service for new signups at a discounted rate of $35 per hour. Read more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/migration-assistance\">KnownHost&#8217;s migration services<\/a>. But if you prefer to do it yourself, the process would be approximately as follows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article will be focusing primarily on the process for a destination server using cPanel\/WHM. For DirectAdmin, the process is similar but the needed sections of the panel interface will be found in different locations, as will some of the needed filepaths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"creating-accounts-in-the-new-server\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"creating_accounts_in_the_new_server\"><\/span>Creating Accounts in the New Server<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to create the account(s) in the new server, so that there is a place to put the data. For cPanel, you can learn more about this&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/kb\/cpanel-and-directadmin-the-basics\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"copying-the-files\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"copying_the_files\"><\/span>Copying the Files<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once an account for the site exists in the destination server, you can copy the site files into the new documentroot. The site&#8217;s Documentroot is the folder in the server that apache will serve files from for a site. In a cPanel server, this is&nbsp;<code>\/home\/cpuser\/public_html<\/code> (replacing&nbsp;<code>cpuser<\/code>&nbsp;with the username of the cPanel user)&nbsp;by default for the main domain of the cPanel account. If you are logging into the server via&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/kb\/configuring-win-scp-to-upload-files-via-ftp-sftp\/\">ftp<\/a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/kb\/how-to-configure-filezilla-to-upload-files-via-sftp\/\">sftp<\/a>&nbsp;as the cPanel user, then you will start out in&nbsp;<code>\/home\/cpuser<\/code>&nbsp;so you would be looking for folder&nbsp;<code>public_html<\/code>&nbsp;there. How to fetch the files from the source server may vary based on what if any panel is installed in the source server and how it is configured, but once you have downloaded them, you can upload them to the site&#8217;s new documentroot in the destination server using ftp or sftp or webdav or scp or rsync, if preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"copying-the-databases\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"copying_the_databases\"><\/span>Copying the Databases<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many types of sites are not composed entirely of files, but rather, also make use of one or more databases. In cPanel, before a database can be imported, it must first be created. If this is your first time creating a database in a cPanel server, it is recommended to use the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.cpanel.net\/display\/ALD\/MySQL+Database+Wizard\">MySQL Database Wizard<\/a>. You will need to create both a database and a mysql user for the site, and make sure the mysql user has any needed permissions granted for the database. Make sure to save the database name, database username, and database user&#8217;s password, since you will need these momentarily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the database is created in the new server, you will need to import the data from an sql file. First you will need to export the database in the source server into an sql file. How to do this will depend on what if any panel is installed in the source server and how it is configured. Once you have it, there are a couple of methods to import the file in the new server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the sql file is small, it may be easier to import it using PhpMyAdmin. But if the database is large, the sql file may be too large to import efficiently in this way. In this case, the recommendation is to upload the sql file to the server and then import it directly into mysql. First, you will need to upload the sql file, for example using ftp. But do not put it in the site&#8217;s documentroot. It is recommended instead to put it directly into the cPanel user&#8217;s home directory. (&nbsp;i.e.,&nbsp;<code>\/home\/cpuser<\/code>, the folder you will start in if you log into the server via ftp as that cPanel user)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next step will require the cPanel account to have either normal shell or jailed shell enabled. This can be checked and adjusted in WHM at Home \u00bb Account Functions \u00bb Manage Shell Access as described&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/documentation.cpanel.net\/display\/ALD\/Manage+Shell+Access\">here<\/a>. After this, you can log into the server via ssh as the cPanel user. If you are using Windows you may want to use PuTTY for this as described&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/kb\/how-to-connect-with-ssh\/\">here<\/a>, except that instead of logging in as root, it is recommended to log in as the cPanel user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you log in as the cPanel user, you will already be in the cPanel user&#8217;s home directory when you log in. If that is where you put the SQL file &nbsp; then you should be able to see the file in the list when listing the files with&nbsp;<code>ls -hal<\/code>&nbsp; or similar. Then, to import it into MySQL, you can use the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  # mysql cpuser_db &lt; exporteddb.sql<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>You will need to replace&nbsp;<code>cpuser_db<\/code>&nbsp;with the&nbsp;<em>full<\/em>&nbsp;name of the database you just created. This will usually be a name in the form&nbsp;<code>cpuser_something<\/code>&nbsp;where&nbsp;<code>cpuser<\/code>&nbsp;is replaced by the first eight characters of the cPanel user&#8217;s username, and&nbsp;<code>something<\/code>&nbsp;will be replaced by whatever you entered into the MySQL Database Wizard while creating the database. Similarly, you will need to replace&nbsp;<code>exporteddb.sql<\/code>&nbsp;with the filename of the sql file you uploaded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the sql file was compressed, you will need to first uncompress it, with the appropriate program for the type of compression used. For example, the needed command might look like one of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  # gunzip exporteddb.sql.gz\n  # bunzip2 exporteddb.sql.bz2\n  # unzip exporteddb.sql.zip<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>If the database name, MySQL username, or MySQL user&#8217;s password are different than they were in the old server, you will need to find the site&#8217;s configuration file to update these, so that the site scripts will again be able to connect to its database correctly. Where this is set will vary by the type of site, but for example, if it is a site running WordPress, you will be looking for a file named&nbsp;<code>wp-config.php<\/code>, specifically the lines like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  define('DB_NAME', 'cpuser_db');\n  define('DB_USER', 'cpuser_user');\n  define('DB_PASSWORD', 'somepassword');\n  define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Sites not using WordPress will have configuration files with different names, possibly in different locations, and the formats of the required lines would likely be different as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"testing-the-site\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"testing_the_site\"><\/span>Testing the Site<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is&nbsp;<em>strongly<\/em>&nbsp;recommended to test the site in the new server&nbsp;<em>before<\/em>&nbsp;changing the dns to point to the new server. You can learn more about how to do this&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.knownhost.com\/kb\/how-can-i-test-my-migrated-website-before-changing-the-dns\/\">here<\/a>.
