Moving Zenphoto Between Servers?

Hi there, I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience moving an entire zenphoto install to a new server?

Is there a way to not lose all of my descriptions and such?

Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere, I couldn't find any relevant threads.

Thanks,
Brennan

    You will have to backup the database on the one server and then restore it on the other. Do this first, then install your albums folders and lastly install zenphoto.

    Hi all,
    I'm moving my site to another server. Made a backup the database on the old server and then restore it on the new one, copied albums, zenphoto.

    Now I have several errors on the new: `Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 86 of 126 bytes in /data/w/a/wallpaperstock.sk/web/zp-core/functions-i18n.php on line 389`, and `Warning: array_shift() [function.array-shift]: The argument should be an array in /data/w/a/wallpaperstock.sk/web/zp-core/functions-i18n.php on line 401`. Any sugestions how to resove this issue?

    Many thanks

    This is an indication that there is a problem in some of the data. You can probably figure out what image/album is involved and look at the data.

    Thanks for Your reply.
    With zenphoto buildin database backup/restore plugin is working correctly. Before I used phpmyadmin export/import.

    Thank You.
