Oh wow, this is a large move then.
Basicly, if you have a freshly installed Debian server... You gotta make sure it has the components installed first. Apache? MySQL? PHP?
The easiest thing to do is to install a control panel for the server.
A
GOOD and
FREE controlpanel is "kloxo". It has all the things you need. Here are the installation instructions:
http://wiki.lxcenter.org/Kloxo+Installation+Guide
After it's installed, take a backup of your current database. The easiest thing to do is by going to the option "
Export" in PhpMyAdmin. (A Database manager running on PHP)
After you've got your database .sql file... It's time to setup a new database in the freshly installed KLOXO panel. You can google those instructions, it's not that hard. (Kloxo has PhpMyAdmin, so you'll just go to the "
Import" tab and import the .sql file.)
Now you've got to add your domain name to the server. You can google on how to add domains and how to make a DNStemplate for Kloxo.
Next thing to do is to upload ALL the files you've had on your computer to the server. Do this by going to "
File Manager" inside Kloxo, and uploading the files to the right folder (The one binded to the domain you added earlier)
Last thing to do is to edit your config.php file to suit your new server!
