Wow thank you so much!.. i followed the manual opload discription and it worked!
i was getting kinda stressed out due to a meeting i have with my client in about an hour. ; )
my hositing is hosting2go.nl

Consider this ticker closed!

Thanks again!

Looks like i found the solution/problem after all…
I had to change the path in Settings > “media”- tab >
Under “upload files section” i had somehow entered the full path to the upload folder.
Now i just entered “wp-content/uploads”.

Perhaps something caused a problem because i migrated to a subdomain..i don’t know. However it worked!

Thank you so much for your kind efforts and support!

no after that i wasnt asked to enter anymore ftp details..
No i’m not able to install/upload anything to my new installation. No themes, no files, no pictures.
I always get the same message/question:

“Can’t create the folder uploads/2013/08. Is the folder above writable by the server?”

yes i believe so.
i think that what i entered was correctly though… the site itself was migrated to the new location correctly, so it had acces through FTP, right?

Iv’e opened a new topic also..but i’m not getting any response..
Can someone please help me out or point in the right direction?
like i wrote above:
I can’ t write/upload anything to my new installation using the upload function within WP after migrating through the WP-Clone- plugin. I’ve tried to change the writing-permission of the folder on the server via ftp, but still the problem remains…
Hope someone can help me out.

Hello Again!
The alternate Zip-method worked.!!.thank you so much! (I eventually never got to the restart of the apache server…cause i didn’t knew how exactly. )
But the migration worked fine all the files seem to be in the right place. One problem though..when trying to updating my theme with the integrated upload-function, or upload a new file, i get the message:
“Can’t create the folder uploads/2013/08. Is the folder above writable by the server?”

It seems like there’s a permission/rights-problem to write to the upload folder. I probably have to change something manually. Writing directly to the folder through ftp does work however, so it has to be something inside the wordpress-settings, maybe?

Looking forward to your reply again!
Thanks

Thanks alot for your responses.. i really appriciate it!
I’m going to try and work this out as soon as i can i then i’ll let you know if i managed to get it working…
Thanks Agin
Cheers!

..and, so 600M is over the top right?

Thank you so much again for your response..I’ sorry, i’m really new to all of this..
Where/how can i restart this apache server? don’t where to look/start..
Is there a way to tell me how or would this just take to much explenation..
Plz let me know..thanks..

Hi Jan,

Thanks for your quick response!. I found the php.ini file on my new location and changed the line to a higher value but still i get the same error message. i changed it to 600M and 600 mb. (it was 48M and 16mb, so that’s quite an increasement.) I’m not sure what i’m doing / doing wrong. Also i don’t quite understand what you were saying about the ton of memory.

About the backup…we are talking about changing the php.ini file on my NEW location, not in the one i’m trying to move, right?

The link you send concerning “moving wordpress (to another server) i allready found earlier, but that was too confusing for me..that’s why i was so glad/hopefull after finding your plugin..
Any other suggestions on how to make this plugin work?

Thanks again…

Sorry..will do so.

Hello,
Hope you can help me out. Tried to migrate…
the backup went all good but with the restore on the new wordpress installation i get this error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 139129427 bytes) in /var/www/vhosts/rubencreemers.nl/subdomains/wp/httpdocs/wp-admin/includes/file.php on line 640

Looks like it has something to do with insufficient space..is that right?
This is the first time i’m moving a WP-website and i’m kinda new to all of this. Could you please help me out or maybe point me in the right direction?..The destination server should have more than enough free space…
It also looks like it started migrating ok, lots of files have been tranferred but obviously something went wrong during migration..
Hope to hear from you soon..
Thanks in advance..
