Subject: Re: DB errror after migration
I'm needing to migrate my citadel instance from one server to
another.
performed an easy-install on the target system
used ./ctdlmigrate to bring all the data across
If the source and target systems are the same architecture (such as 64-bit Intel) you're probably better off just shutting down citserver on the source system and copying the files over.
They are the same architecture, but I wanted to get away from the debian .rpm install and into the easy-install which is many many revisions newer

Right. You can still do it, but you'll have to go through a bunch of places
to get it all. Look at this web page
http://www.citadel.org/doku.php/documentation:file_layout
It will tell you where the packages keep all the data files. You'll neeed to scrape those all up and get them over to /usr/local/citadel on the target system.
This proliferation of files is greatly reduced in recent versions of Citadel server. Our aim is to have 100% of everything directly in the database in the not too distant future.

yeah I get that .. I still need to "upgrade" from ** Citadel server engine v8.24 (build 5644ab7) ***
I can copy the tree over, but the db schema will have changed .. is it best to just db_dump -h all that and db_load it on the other side?
Also .. there's still the issue of the segfault on login and the apparent db corruption afterwords which started this thread.
