Migrating data from an old WebMO install to a new WebMO install
Posted: Fri Oct 06, 2023 1:52 pm
We were running WebMO 19.0.009p alongside Gaussian 16 Rev A and have moved to WebMO 22.0.009p alongside Gaussian 16 Rev C.
The new WebMO/Gaussian install is running correctly.
I would like to migrate the data from the original installation to the new installation.
I see this as an option on the WebMO Help site, https://www.webmo.net/link/help/CopyingWebMOJobs.html, but that seems to be referring to backing up jobs for an individual user, which would require a separate tar file for each user.
I also see this, https://www.webmo.net/link/help/MovingWebMO.html, which ****may*** be more of what I'm looking for, but my concern is that I would be moving between versions rather than from one server to another running the same version.
What is the best course of action to follow to move all jobs from one server, running an older version of WebMO, to a different server running a newer version of WebMO.
Disclaimer - I'm just the IT guy to did the install. I am not a WebMO user. I just want to make sure I don't break what is already working when I restore the data.
