Issues with migration between two Plesk Servers

[Davicval]

Hi support,

I am configuring a new Plesk server 12.x based on Linux. I already have a Plesk server in 10.x on Windows and i would like to transfer all the data we have on this one to the new server.

I tried to do a backup of the old server using the web interface but the zip file created was not compatible with the one using Linux.

So my question is: What is the easiest way to do what i want?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
David

The two are not compatible. Whenever I have moved domains from one platform to the other I have had to create the domain then ftp the data down from windows and back up for linux. This is a domain by domain task. That means re-creating email addresses, databases etc. PITA.

I have yet to read anything any different about plesk 12 but in the end Windows is Windows and Linux is Linux and the two use totally different everything from MTA to DNS.

Officially supported transfer scenarios can be found here - http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...nstallation-upgrade-migration-guide/71244.htm

And there is following sentence:

Important: Transfer between Plesk for Linux and Plesk for Windows is not supported.

Thanks for both answers, I'll try to move my new Plesk on Windows and see how can i transfer my data.

Thanks again for your help.
