Move NolaPro Between Computers

Move NolaPro Between Computers

Moving NolaPro to a new machine involves installing NolaPro on the destination, exporting your database (and any uploaded attachments) from the old system, and importing them on the new one. The method varies by hosting type.

Hosted Sites

  1. On your current system, open Tools -> System -> Storage Info.
  2. Click Download Database to export a backup of your database.
  3. Click Download Attachments to save any files or images attached to customers, orders, or other records.
  4. Install NolaPro on the new server and import the downloaded database backup.

Self-Managed Windows

  1. Download the NolaPro Windows Installation Management tool from www.nolapro.com/downloads — choose the Full Download in the Windows section.
  2. Run the installer on the new machine to set up NolaPro, if you have not done so already.
  3. Click Import Database and select the backup file from your old system.
  4. Allow the import and update to run. When complete, log in with your existing username and password.
