We are running the framework (latest release but not the 5.0 beta that's currently in testing) on a server where we have discovered a hardware error. Is it possible to move the whole thing, courses included, to a different server? As it happens, our proposed target server already has the Adapt Framework installed. Would we simply move the database? Is there anything else we need to move, or dependencies we have to be concerned with? Thanks.
Can we move our whole database to a new server?
Re: Can we move our whole database to a new server?
Someone asked about this recently in the chat rooms, this is the answer that was given.
(BTW I'm assuming since you mention a database you're actually using the Authoring Tool, not the Framework)
Re: Can we move our whole database to a new server?
Our instructional designers are using the Authoring Tool but we also have one developer who has developed a couple of courses in the Framework. Thanks for the instructions -- we'll try that. Although there is also a second possibility -- trying the new release and moving the Authoring Tool courses that way. Might try the method, then the second.
Re: Can we move our whole database to a new server?
Hi,
Amy and I are working on moving our whole database to a new server using the instructions from the link shared above. In our current instance of the authoring tool, there are about 100+ users given access to the tool, and many users have created courses and some of them are shared with others. Many additional plugins are also available in the current instance/database of the tool.
Now we have taken a copy of the database and connected to a new instance of the authoring tool in a new server. In this new server, we can see the courses created and shared on the old server. But, we are NOT able to view the course created by the users and those are not shared with others. Also, when we preview the course, the following error occurs in the new server. Can someone suggest how we can resolve this.?
Thanks,
Suresh
