Is it simple to move Self Hosted from one hosting company to another?

Hello, I was wondering if someone could tell me if it is easy to move self hosted control panel from one hosting company to another ? Many thanks

Yes! I have done that. You have to export your mySql database and download all the files On the new host you create a new database then you import your backup to your new database. Then you upload all you files to your new server. If you have a new domain name, you need to do a install process. So you database get right URL

Listen to Mackimack... It 'is' simple, but it is also 'tedious'. little details mean a LOT. Good Luck, and hit the forums with any issues during the move! Back up 'everything' before you start! Cheers! -- Smug
