In reply to: [WordPress Move] [Plugin: WordPress Move] wordpress move and gravity formsA few other users also told me that they are having issues similar to yours with plugins that uses additional tables. Looks like the function that generates the database backup is somehow unable to export certain types of tables.
Thanks for the feedback, I will have a look at this issue as soon as possible.
You can 301 redirect the traffic to your new installation by using some htaccess magic. Redirection using the code 301 means that the requested page has been moved permanently. So, by using 301 redirection, users will be redirected to the new URL and search engine spiders will update themselves by replacing the new URL of the requested page with the older one.
WordPress Move extends the script execution time wherever possible but if the PHP is running in Safe Mode or if there is some kind of read/write operation limit set on your server, it may fail creating large backup files. You can use the Migrate tool of the Migration Assistant to manually create backups of directories you choose (repeat this several times until all files are backed up), or you can also manually transfer files to your new server using an FTP client or so.
Please make sure that the variable
$table_prefixinwp-config.phpis referencing to the right set of tables for your other issue.You should use the Change Domain Name tool on the Migration Assistant page and fill in the details as the following:
Old Domain Name:
dougbardwell.com/wordpress
New Domain Name:dougbardwell.comOnce the operation is completed successfully, open your FTP client and move everything inside the
/wordpress/directory up one level.1) Fill in the FTP settings of WordPress Move with some random values.
2) Use the Migrate option as if you are migrating to a normal server.
3) Fill in the Change Domain Name section on the Migrate page, so that all the references to your live domain will be replaced withlocalhost/your-wp-directory/.
4) Click the Start Migration button and wait.
5) Plugin will create backups but fail to establish an FTP connection.
6) Go to Backup Manager and download all backup files listed.
7) Move the backup files you have downloaded to the/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-move/backup/directory of your local WordPress installation.
8) Use the Restore option of the Migration Assistant on your local installation to complete the migration.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MoveGood news everyone, I found the problem. This error only occurs if php_sockets extension is not enabled, as PemFTP needs it to operate.
Please contact your hosting company and tell them to enable php_sockets extension. After it is enabled and your web server is restarted, you will be able to activate the plugin.
This is something beyond WordPress Move, so I cannot do anything else about this issue unfortunately.
Sorry, I am late but looks like you solved it already 🙂
It is always a pleasure to see another happy user. Thanks for your nice words archimedia 🙂

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MoveIs it a large backup file in means of file size? If so, try setting Chunk Size for file system backups to 10 and then try migrating again.

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress Move.tartamillo.: It should have created only one backup file when you set it to 0, yes. Will have a look at that, InstantWP and Bitnami. Thanks for the feedback 🙂
ga-uk: Will do my best to fix it if it is caused by the plugin. Thanks for the details 🙂

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MovePlugin drops each table on your database and recreates it with the new data, one by one.
Did you create the backup files using the Migrate option of Migration Assistant or the Backup Manager? If you did not create them using the Migrate option with the Change Domain Name section filled in appropriately, then every time you navigate to the local mirror using your browser, you are actually being redirected to the live site.

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MoveThese are not related to WordPress Move unfortunately. add_contextual_help function is not used by WordPress Move at all. Check functions.php inside the directory of the theme you are using currently. Most likely the code there is causing these errors.

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MoveReally interesting. I can confirm that it works with PHP 5.2.5 and 5.3.6 so the problem is most probably not related to the PHP version.
I’m still working on trying to reproduce this error. I really hope I can provide a fix soon.

In reply to: [WordPress Move] Fatal Error on Activation of WordPress MoveAs davidsword said, your server configuration and/or PHP version is causing this problem. There are a few other users experiencing the same issue but since I haven’t been able to reproduce the error yet, I’m unable to provide a fix.
Could you please tell me which version of PHP you are running?
