2.4.2.3. Manual site transfer between hosting accounts

Attention!

When manually transferring a site between hosting accounts, all mailboxes associated with it will be permanently deleted.
You can transfer your site along with mailboxes and their contents using the automatic transfer system.
  1. If the site has linked mailboxes with important messages, export their contents.
  2. Create and download archives with a backup copy of the site and a copy of the database it uses to your PC.
  3. Delete site from hosting1). All of its mailboxes will also be deleted.
  4. Switch to the new hosting account (if it is located in another account, log in to it).
  5. Using the file manager or FTP client upload the archive with a copy of the site to the hosting, extract it and place its contents in the root directory of the site.
  6. Create database and import the dump from the archive containing a copy of the database into it.
  7. Important! In the hosting account where the site was transferred, be sure to correct the connection settings to the database in its configuration file. If absolute paths are used on the site, correct them. The path to the site directory should look like /home/user/example.com/www, where user should be replaced with hosting account name and example.com/www should be replaced with path to the site files (instructions: WordPress, Joomla!, OpenCart).
  8. Check the site operation.

1)
Since a site cannot be located in multiple hosting accounts at the same time, in order to add it to a new hosting account, you must first delete it from the old one.
