Moving from my server to SeekDotNet

I'm currently moving my website from my server at home (W2K, SQL Express 2005) to a SeekDotNet account.

1. I'm wondering if anyone has and step by step instructions on how to get Mojo up and running on their servers.

2. Is it possible to get my database info from my home server running SQL express 2005 to their installation of SQL 2008.

Thanks in advance.
Rob

Re: Moving from my server to SeekDotNet

Hi Rob,

I have some notes here about moving from one server to another. I don't have any specifics for any particular host. I'm not sure if seekdotnet allows you to restore a backup but if they do then you could make a backup and then restore it over a db on the host. When you do that though it will orphan the db user created by the host so you wil need to get the host to un-orphan the user after restoring the backup.

Other than restoring a backup the only other way is to use some third party tools or scripts that can generate scripts of your database and data and then you can run the scripts on the new db.

Hope it helps,

Joe
