    If I have to put a website with WP to another machine, apart from the backup folder where you save WP already clear to me that you also have to take the database, but it is not clear which part of the basis of data is necessary. I’m trying to bring the web to a virtual machine with ubuntu 14.04 and apache2 to another of same, if I’m not mistaken the part of DB that I have to go by is what is in / var / lib / myswl, there a folder called appears “wordpress” which is the name I gave to the WP DB but has a very small size, there does not seem to have all my WP.

    If someone with knowledge / experience helps me, makes me a great favor. I am making this website to work for free with a social non-profit foundation, and we need to have the new site online as soon posible?

    Really Thanks??

  • take a look at one of the plugins that will backup the entire site (DB and files) and allow you to migrate it to another site. I use BackupBuddy (a paid plugin) to do things like this but I believe there are others you could use.

    Yep, but now the web is not running because i have a fail at mysql-server ??

    Use the bakdup plugin on the original site

    I tried to move my wordpress files to my new free hosting site. I followed the steps in the youtube tutorial i watched. I have connected and transferred the files using the ftp. i have created new database name but when i open the website URL i created the page just says “Congratulations! Your free hosting account has been activated.
    You can now use FTP or the file manage to upload your site.
    It seems that they have not found any files. And i cannot log back anymore to my localhost/wp-login ?? pls help.This is my first trial and i failed. I hope anyone can help me. Thank you

    I’d suggest you contact your host’s support and remember you get what you pay for
