March 29, 201114 yr comment_9130 do i just copy out the folder to the new server?Yes. The beauty of the Uniform Server system is that it's portable. What you may have to do, though, is to check whether your application needs to be adjusted if the domain name is changed. I know that WordPress requires this. It's a simple change in one of the database tables, specifically wp_options. The siteurl and home entries need to modified to reflect a new domain name. But if you use the same domain name, you should be good to go.Regards,BobS Report
