Hello, I've recently installed a phpbb3 forum in a host. But it's quite laggy and the users are complaining, so I want to move it to your host.
I made a backup in my current host and downloaded it. I have a folder that contains all the pages, php, html, pictures ... with the original structure. I have a .sql for the database.
uploaded the folder with all the pages. And then I went to phpMyAdmin, created a new database (WITH DIFFERENT NAME THAN THE ORIGINAL ONE) and under SQL I searched for my .sql file in the computer and uploaded it.
When I try to access the forum the only thing I get is a blank page.
I don't know if I did it correctly as I didn't have a guide or something. And I don't know if it's OK to have a different DB name but it won't let me enter the same name as the former one.
Any help appreciated for a phpbb newbie. Thank you in advance
