Hi
Im trying to move a CMSMS installation from a local host to dreamhost. I have moved all database tables, copied across all the files and modified the config.php, but im getting a few errors still.
I can log into admin, and most seems ok but i under 'extensions' i get -
--Add Me - module:Backup string:friendlyname--
--Add Me - module:Backup string:admindesc--
I cant view the home page - the error message is -
string(103) "Smarty error: [in template:16 line 5]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'title' (core.load_plugins.php, line 123)" string(108) "Smarty error: [in template:16 line 6]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'stylesheet' (core.load_plugins.php, line 123)" string(107) "Smarty error: [in template:16 line 7]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'html_blob' (core.load_plugins.php, line 123)" string(109) "Smarty error: [in template:16 line 21]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'cms_module' (core.load_plugins.php, line 123)" string(106) "Smarty error: [in template:16 line 40]: [plugin] unknown tag - 'content' (core.load_plugins.php, line 123)"
Im using CMS Made Simple 0.12 "Fiji"
Am i using the right process to move the site across?
cheers!

Re: moving cmsms
Have you cleared the CMSms cache?
I'm afraid too that not all files would be copied (also, if you see it in your ftp manager - please copy it once again).
The error message said some file are missed. The files are located in plugins directory (function.title.php, function.stylesheet.php, function.html_blob.php, function.cms_module.php, function.content.php).
The "Add Me" message under extensions said there's not translation available in your language for backup module. You should look in lang directory there's the language file for you.

Re: moving cmsms
i've had the most success using the Backup Module like so...
site to move... install the backup module.. make backup, it spits out a text file... Name for Backup Set: backup-2006-05-19_09-13-39.txt which you can change... recommended! just make sure you leave the .txt
new site..... install CMSMS with modules used on old site and the Backup Module.... run backup once so it can create a folder in the admin folder called backups,
FTP to old site, in the backups folder find and download backup-2006-05-19_09-13-39.txt or whatever you named it...
FTP to new site, upload your .txt file goto new site Extensions » Database Backup at the bottom you will see Restore a Previous Backup Set clik that and it will come up with Backup Set to Restore with drop down, find your .txt file... all backups made w/o changing name look the same hence the recommendation for naming it yourself, big warning...WARNING!! RESTORING A DATASET WILL OVERWRITE ALL THE CURRENT DATABASE CONTENTS!! ...ready.. clik Restore This Backup Set .. now you need to clear your cache under Site Admin » Global Settings .. and make some minor tweaks depending on your set up.. i've done this with total success 5 times now...

Re: moving cmsms - att ted
My problem is exactly the same problem he was having. exactly the same error messages,
Ted, I have cleared the cache, and made changes to the config file, now I think I should just retain the database and install version 0.12.2, where do I get the backup module or massmover module, I cant find them.

Re: moving cmsms
Is it also possible to copy your complete site with massmover without removing it from the original server ?cyberman wrote: MassMover module is great for these one too...

Re: moving cmsms
If I'm right massmover moves the site not for real. It will bring all needed files to an archiv which you can move

Hi Cyberman,
Txs for your response!
Just want to make sure that whatever MassMover actually does, it doesn't corrupt the original website.
Gues I will have to try and find out ! Will put the results here .

If I would do this your way, is it important that the database you create on the new site (while installing CMSMS) has got the same
name/ username/password as the database on the old site?

Re: moving cmsms
no, the sites i've moved have had diff. name/username/password...
built the site on my main or a test site and moved them to diff domain, eg., developed Fuller Life Water on my site got it the way they liked it and then moved it to they're server, the admin and user names stayed the same, so i had to loggin as the original admin...

Will keep this in mind. I don't have to move the site urgently but will have too within a few weeks .
If I get stuck I can get back to you I hope ?
