Migrate profile and custom data to another server
July 07, 2009, 05:41:20 am
I need to use some of my profiles from one CiviCrm in another on another server. I don't want to recreate the same data. Is anybody did that before? I think the way to do this is define required tables and data and then create same data in target server DB. I realised that at least I need:
  • civicrm_custom_field
  • civicrm_custom_group
  • civicrm_option_group
  • civicrm_uf_field
  • civicrm_uf_group
  • civicrm_uf_join
  • civicrm_uf_join
  • civicrm_uf_match
  • and tables that contains custom fields data

I'm not sure is it complete set. Also DB conceptual model might be helpful (I can't find it at CiviCrm site).
So I will glad to receive any advice for this problem. Thanks all.

the ERD is here: http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/CiviCRM+ERD+2.0

there are also some scripts in bin/migrate/*.php which was a start at moving the custom/profile groups to different databases via xml. You might want to check those scripts and upgrade them to 2.2.x and use them
