I would like to know how to move my Exponential work installed up winxp system on another computer with win2000, I use the ezpublisher installer version 3.6.0 and start from corporate version template.
When on the other machine I replace Exponential directory, at the moment of the localhost start I obtain some errors. Why?

Thanks you
Best Regards

Well... it should not be very hard to get the site to work:
- copy all the files of the ezp installation you want to migrate (create an archive, it will save lots of time) to the new folder on the other server
- dump the database and import it on the new sql server
- set the permissions on the new server (write permissions on /var is the minimum

Basically, it should work. You may have to change some settings (SQL username / password / db name, image configuration, email config...).
