Hi I wonder how i do this?

I found this article:
https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=8916&forumId=6&highlight=mysqldump" class="wiki wikinew text-danger tips">https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=8916&forumId=6&highlight=mysqldump
But it refers to mysql, but im running mariadb, (well my host is)., so receiving an error:

"#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'mysqldump -u tikiuser -p tiki-db > dump.sql' at line 1"

I also read this one:
https://doc.tiki.org/Move+Tiki+to+a+new+server" class="wiki wikinew text-danger tips">https://doc.tiki.org/Move+Tiki+to+a+new+server

Thanks for any help with this! :-)


Cheers!

What Tiki version are you using?

You should be able to simply:

  • Backup your database from the old server, then restore on the new server.
  • Copy the content of your Tiki installation folder from old to new server.
  • Run the Tiki installer on the new server and reset the database connection strings


You may need to manually clear the cache folders on the new server.
