Hi All,

I am needing to move the server install from my C: drive to my Terabyte drive and was wondering if there are a set of steps that I should follow.

Thanks

Login to phpmyadmin and go to the export tab. Select all your databases and save the generated sql file to your desktop. Move your www folder to your desktop.

Uninstall WAMP and delete any remaining files. Reinstall WAMP to your new drive. Move back your www folder and login to phpmyadmin click the import tab to resetup your databases you backup earlier.

thanks,

what if the backup is too big for phpMyAdmin to handle?

~128 mb and i couldnt for the life of me figure out how to do this using mysql console.

if you wanna load it back in.... then open your php.ini and change the max upload to more than 2mb
