importing from another nodebb installation

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Hello,

I am trying to migrate a nodebb to a different location. I have tried dumping the database and then moving the files to the different location but the login/register does not work anymore. The next idea would be to import the already existing forum into the new one. Is there any plugin which would allow me to achieve this?

thanks for your help in advance.

Let me know which version of NodeBB you have installed on the new server, and also run npm ls nodebb-theme-vanilla

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Both has v0.5.5 installed.

New server:

npm ls nodebb-theme-vanilla
[email protected] /root/nodebb
└── [email protected] 

old server:

npm ls nodebb-theme-vanilla
[email protected] /nodebb
└── [email protected]

Does the new server have the same OS? Are Node and nginx all up to date?

Have you cleared your cache?

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Yes, they have the same version of node.js, same OS, cleared the cache. New server does not have nginx yet cause it's still in testing until I am able to make it work.

have you set "domain for session cookie" ? this can course this kind of trouble.

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

@Nifty yes I did
I will disable it. import the database again and let you know.

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes Im usually lazy and just copy the database files from one to the other

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Maybe but the connection between the two servers suck greatly, so it's much faster the export import way

[Peter-Zoltan Keresztes]

Nope is not working, I am getting the same error. without the domain for session cookie set.
