Migration question
« on: 19/April/2009, 12:25:32 AM »
I have had *the worst luck* with hosts.

I started with godaddy, and my site was at /cms. Their mysql databases were so slow I finally gave up on them. I moved to mochahost who was incredibly fast.. and for some headache reasons ended up putting my site in /home and had to get a new license key. Now, these guy, however fast, have intermittent downtime..like.. 404...404...404.. tada..heres your site. Cant connect to mysql server...wait 2 mins.. tada its back. So now Im moving **again**

My question is..
If I put all the files in the exact same folders on the new host, will I need to get another license key?

Thanks,
SC

I have also had very bad experiences with Mocha. They do seem to overload their servers, among other sins.

As long as the URL you use to access Joomla administrator remains the same, the key will continue to work ok.
