Hi Greg,
Probably the safest way to proceed is to install Koha on the new server, then just mysqldump the Koha database on the old server and restore it to the new server. Something like this:
# mysqldump -ukohaadmin -pmypass --add-drop-table Koha > koha.sql # scp koha.sql myuser@newserver.com:
Then on the new server:
# mysql -ukohaadmin -pmypass Koha < /home/myuser/koha.sql
Hope that helps, let us know how it goes.
Fantastic, I will give it a shot and see how we go!

Hi all,
We ae running Koha on a dodgy spare desktop that we scrounged up, now we have a nice shiny Dell server to run it on.
What is the easiest method of transferring the data from the old server to the new server? (Using Koha 2.2.4 on both servers.) I'm guessing that all I have to do is install Koha on the new server (meet prerequisites etc) and move across the MySQL data to the new server. Am I missing something critical?
