To move the Joomla site on web hosting you need to add a domain to ISPmanager panel. If the domain has already been added to the section “Domain names”, then proceed to step 2.
Step 1. Domain adding
Go to “Domain names” menu and press “Create a domain” button
Enter your domain name in the field «Domain name» and check the boxes in the fieds “Create WWW domain” and “Create email domain”.
Step 2. Database creation
You need a database to work with Joomla CMS. To create it go to “Instruments” – “Database” and press “Create a database” button .
Enter a name of the database using Latin alphabet, specify the encoding of the database (most often it is cp1251 or utf8), enter the username and password using Latin alphabet. To create the password you can use “Password Generator”. Save Your password!
Step 3. Upload of installation files
Choose the necessary version of distribution at http://joomlaportal.ru/ and download it on your local computer.
Go to “Instruments” – “File manager” in the web hosting control panel.
Go to www/your_domain_name directory (e.g., www/test1.com)
Click “Upload file to current folder”.
Select the distribution file and click “OK”:
Select the downloaded archive and press “Extract the archive to the current directory”.
Check the location of the extracted files. They should be located in the directory of your domain www/your_domain_name. If the files are in another directory, move them to the www/your_domain_name directory using the copy and paste functions in the toolbar.
Step 4. Installation.
Open your website http://your_domain_name in the browser to run Joomla. You will be directed to http://your_domain_name/installation/index.php. automatically
Select language, fill in the fields. Required fields are marked with “*”. Press «Next»:
In “Database Configuration” enter “Database Username”, “Password for a Database” and “Database Name” (you specified them in step 2) and click “Next”.
If you want to install the demo data, click on the appropriate button. Then click “Install”:
Wait till the end of the CMS installation.
To finish the installation, delete “Installation” directory. You may do it later manually (delete the appropriate directory from the file manager in the control panel).
Press “Delete “installation” directory” button:
The CMS installation is over. Congratulations!
Important: Sometimes users may receive an error (the emails can not be send):
"malformed header from script. Bad header=More than one "from" person: php, referer: link".
In this case you have to go use phpmailer file that is placed in the following directory:
/www/Domain_name/libraries/phpmailer.
This line:
$params = sprintf("-oi -f %s", $this->Sender);
should be edited:
$params = sprintf("", $this->Sender);
Joomla transfer is over now!
