To transfer your blog to a new hosting server, you will need to follow the below steps:
– Take the complete backup of all your databases
– Take the complete backup of all your web site contents.
– Upload all your web site contents on the new server.
– Restore all your databases on the new server.
If you change the database name, username and password on the new server, you will need to update your wp-config.php file accordingly.

Sorry, I can’t login and post a new topic so I have emailed wordpress.org with that bug.
I am only able to post messages by replying to a post. This is my first post ever at wordpress.org.
I have installed both WordPress and later tried WordPress MU and in either I could not get permalins to work. I have tried everything I found here and via Google search. Nothing helps. My host has mod_rewrite set and I tried various of the solutions I found on the net. Nothing.
So I can’t install Buddypress because it needs pretty permalinks. The default ?x=123 works fine. None of the other pemalinks works.
Any ideas?
@thaiyindee can you paste the contents of your .htaccess file? Make sure that you have added the required code in your .htaccess file.
