Migrate Site and Database to WinHost

Discussion in 'Databases' started by plymouthmom, Nov 19, 2011.

  1. I want to migrate my site and database from another host to Winhost. I have moved all the files from the old host. I coped the database and imported the data and tables into a new database on Winhost. Does it matter that I was on a 2003 server and moving to 2008? Now, how do I rename the database so that I do not have to change the name reference on all my pages? Or is there an easier way?

    Thanks,

    You can't change the naming convention of the database in our hosting platform. You need to update your code with the new connection string.
