<!-->Sometimes one needs to move a Magento 2.0 webshop to another server. This is a fairly simple task and the steps are explained below.<\/p>\n

Export Magento 2 Database<\/strong><\/p>\n

First, back up the database from PHPMyAdmin, for example.<\/p>\n

Backup and transfer of Magento 2 Files and folders<\/strong><\/p>\n

Next, backup the directory where your magento webshop is installed via ftp. Perhaps you can also backup directly from your server and download it as a zip file. Then install\/upload the files to the Magento directory of your new server.<\/p>\n

Import Magento 2 Database<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, using PHPMyAdmin, for example, import the database you previously backed up. To avoid problems always check that the (mysql) database versions are the same<\/p>\n

Edit Magento 2 configurations<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have finished exchanging files between the two servers. Now is the time to configure your Magento 2 store with your new server. First, edit the app\/etc\/env.php by entering the new database data. Open the env.php file using your server file manager and change the lines below:<\/p>\n

'Db' =>\n\narray (\n\n'Table_prefix' => \",\n\n'Verbinding' =>\n\narray (\n\n'Default' =>\n\narray (\n\n'Host' => 'DATABASE_HOST',\n\n'Dbname' => 'database_name',\n\n'Username' => 'DATABASE_USERNAME',\n\n'Wachtwoord' => 'DATABASE_PASSWORD',\n\n'Actieve' => '1',\n\n)\n\n)\n\n)<\/pre>\n
Where:<\/p>\n
'host' is the database hostname. The most commonly used host is \"localhost.\"<\/p>\n
'dbname' is the name of the database.<\/p>\n
'username' is a username.<\/p>\n
'password' is the password.<\/p>\n
You may have a new domain name for your Magento 2.0 webshop. You need to replace your old server domain name with a new domain name. For this you need to change the value in the database in table 
\n  core_config_data<\/strong>
\n<\/em> at 
\n  web\/unsecure\/base_url<\/strong>
\n<\/em> and 
\n  web\/secure\/base_url<\/strong>
\n<\/em><\/p>\n
  Magento 2 Cache in<\/strong><\/p>\n
The final step is to clear the Magento 2 cache and perhaps wisely redeploy it. You can do this by deleting everything in var\/cache<\/strong> located in the magento directory, or you can run the following CLI commands through your terminal:<\/p>\n
1: $ php bin\/magento cache:flush<\/span>\n2: $ php bin\/magento setup:di:compile<\/span>\n3: $ php bin\/magento setup:static-content:deploy (en_US nl_NL)<\/span>\n\n<\/pre>\n
 <\/p>\n
That's all you have to do. Your Magento 2 store will now be back online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
