How to migrate my Siberian install from one server to another

The best solution is to make an export of your current database, and import it in your new database.

Then send the files of your previous Siberian install in the new server.

Go in app/configs folder and download the app.ini file. In this file, change:

  • the info of your previous database by the new ones (database name, username and password)
  • the installation path in this app.ini file on the lines “resources.frontController.moduleDirectory =” and “bootstrap.path =”

Send this app.ini file from your computer to the app/configs folder on your new server.

Then remove all files and folders from the var/cache and var/tmp folders. And you’re done.

It is the same process for all the Siberian CMS editions.
