Thanks. Most of that is over my head, so I've passed it to a friend. The increase in domain HD usage is, apparantly, a known issue which SWSoft are going to log in to fix. Thanks.

I've been reading through various posts about the backup manager as I've got this running as a scheduled back-up for a selection of domains, on to a local FTP server. Does anyone know whether the backup file created is a FULL backup of everything (including domain config and settings AND...

Again, yes. I had 60 sites to transfer. Each time I tried by bulk I found it wouldn't work, so I moved to doing it one site at a time. That lead me to discover that it was usually something about the config of a specific site, as set up on the source server, that it wouldn't like (eg if it had...

Hi Luke, Thanks for the reply and suggestions. I left it running overnight! I mean it really DOES freeze up. The server admin did what you described yesterday, when we first tried it, and immediately concluded that the task had frozen. It keeps happening. As for moving by hand: some...

Hi there, I've been having trouble for 12 hours now and am starting to lose my cool! I succesfully migrated several domains from a RHE3 7.5.4 to a RHE3 8.0.1 box, last week. This week I've been trying to migrate many more domains, from a 7.5.4 Fedora Core box. Some domains migrate OK...

Many thanks!

Thanks. That is ridiculous. I don't think that's the correct path though. In /var/www/vhosts there is no .skel, just a list of domains, default and chroot. Can you advise me further? Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. I've never come across a browser error which would bizarely conjure up the Plesk favicon - but only for sites hosted on a specific Plesk server - and I have never seen this until I started migrating these domains on to the new server. The odds of such being mere...

Just migrating sites across from a 7.5.4 server to 8.0.1 and, oddly, when I view these sites on the new server, the Plesk favicon appears for all websites. I'm sure this is just a mistake as who would put up with having someone else's branding forcibly inserted on their websites? So my...

Yup that worked perfectly - thanks. Again, spot on - they were set up under clients but it didn't occur to me that, if created for all domains under a client, they wouldn't then show up under the domains for the client, as well as under the client account. Thanks!

Having just used Migration Manager to move some clients and domains from a 7.5.4 box to an 8.0.1 install, I've noted two odd problems. The first problem might not be uniquely mine as I can see references to similar (but not identical) bugs in other posts: all the imported domains report ZERO...

Thanks for your help - all's working now. FYI setting the permissions as advised on the old server fixed part of the problem. The other part was in my description of how I was logging in - namely, "I log in as "admin" with password set correctly and set Sudo password to that of root." This...

The new server (to which I wish to migrate) allows SSH from the old server. The old server (from which I wish to migrate) allows SSH from any address for the moment. Thanks, I'll try this and let you know!

Hi folks, I'm trying Migration Manager for the first time and am not having much joy. I've read most of the threads on here and have also studied the Plesk manual. I log in as "admin" with password set correctly and set Sudo password to that of root. I leave "Data import" unchecked (no...

Thanks for the advice - I'll do as you suggest and wait. Cheers.
