Migrating ownCloud InstallationsΒΆ

To migrate an ownCloud install there are three things you need to retain:

  1. The config.php file found in config/config.php
  2. The data folder
  3. The database (found in the data folder for sqlite installs)

To restore an ownCloud instance:

  1. Extract ownCloud to your webserver
  2. Copy over your config.php to config/config.php
  3. Copy over your data folder
  4. Import your database
  5. Update config.php of any changes to your database connection
