Copying Sugar from one server to another

[ppolkinghorne]

I have a Sugar 4.2 installation running under fedora Core 4.

As we have a pilot running, in oerder to test out 4.5, I decided to make a copy to another server to play around with new 4.5 features and get customisation right, rather than disrupt our pilot. This would also test disaster recovery.

I looked at http://www.sugarcrm.com/wiki/index.p...ver_to_another

and followed the instructions using: a) tar file of Sugar HTML files
b) mysqldump of the database.

The server copied to was also running Fedora Core 4 with pretty similar set up.

I uploaded the database, creating as well the sugarcrm user with same priviledges.

I copied in the HTML files and checked both config.php and .htaccess as per note.

Alas not working. I have turned up debugging using log4php.properties and looking at sugarcrm.log see just one entry:

Fri Sep 22 15:39:23 2006,722 [6981] INFO SugarCRM - Query:SELECT category, name,
value FROM config WHERE category='system'

I have double checked by running mysql that username and password for database is correct.

Any suggestions for where to look next?

The login page gets generated as empty web page with this URL:

Apologies - I have worked out what was wrong - namely missing couple of PHP modules mysql in particular.

All working now.
