Migrate Drupal Integrated to Standalone
September 25, 2008, 07:12:04 pm
Hello,  I searched a few weeks back and found nothing.  Just did another one and still nothing, though I see a similar Joomla question.

Current Setup on Bluehost:
 - Drupal 5.3
 - CiviCRM 2.0.5 (In a separate database for data storage)

Desired Setup (I may move to VPS but for now Bluehost)
 - CiviCRM Standalone

1) Can I install 2.0.5 standalone and simple enter the old database name and password? or is there something else?

2) Is there and easy export/import way to do it?

Thanks
KermitJr

IMO following approach should work best -

1. Install 2.1 standalone, resulting in new code base and a new db - http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Install+2.1+Standalone

2. Replace standalone-db with civicrm-2.0 db.

3. Run upgrade on standalone setup.

4. And then follow the instructions given here - http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,4820.msg21079.html#msg21079

(Not sure if anyone tried but should be possible. Above link shows how one joomla(2.0)=>standalone (2.1) migration succeeded.)

If you don't want to upgrade and just migrate, simple db import i guess should work (you might need to clear some tables like civicrm_uf_match).

Deepak:

  Quick question. Can you please clarify.

3. Run upgrade on standalone setup.

Does this mean running the script $civicrm_root/install/upgrade.php ?

where $civicrm_root is the civicrm root for 2.1 standalone.

Thanks.

Yes, though i never tried it my self (for standalone) but pretty sure that this would not be any different (for standalone), since upgrade doesn't do any cms specific thing.

Note: You could also directly put in already upgraded db (upgraded in drupal/joomla), and proceed to next step.
