Importing modifications from version 7.12.6 to version 8.2.1

I have an interesting situation here. I am moving a 7.12.6 installation that has been modified to a new domain name. Doing a backup and re-install in the new domain name has caused all sorts of errors even with setting all the right file and folder permissions. “Undefined” coming up all over the place. Database errors etc.

So, on the new server I have installed version 8.2.1 and am looking to do an export / import of my data from the 7.12 site to the new 8.2.1 site. But first I need to move the module modifications, which don’t involve any coding changes, across to the new server. Is it as simple as just copying across the custom folders to the new server and then import export of data? Or am I going to have difficulties doing it this way.

Any help with this upgrade would be welcome.

Regards, Chris.

Hi Chris,

I’m trying to upgrade from 7.13.1 to 8.2 without any success. Have you successfully migrated? Do you by chance have a link to a webpage that gives step by step instructions?

Thanks in advance
