I’ve been having ongoing stability problems with my existing racktables
server (Mysql Locks). I decided I was just going to build a fresh server,
and migrate the database.
Current environment:
Racktables 0.20.12
I’ve setup the new server following https://github.com/RackTables/racktables ;
, copied the database/secret.php/plugins over, grabbed the latest Racktables
0.20.13. Hit the URL, Got a authentication error, so changed secret.php to
use my mysql root account., hit the URL again and got prompted to upgrade the
database.
I did so, and was greeted with the main page. Success! ….. or so I thought.
When I clicked the Objects button, I was given the following error:
Pdo exception: PDOException
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1449 The user specified as a definer
('rackuser'@'localhost') does not exist (HY000)
at file /var/www/RackTables-0.20.13/wwwroot/inc/database.php, line 3988
I remember when I setup Racktables on the orginal server , creating users
like that (or at least seeing that username), but it’s not in the
instructions off the download site. So before I go trying to hack THIS new
installation to work, let me ask…
What’s the correct way to migrate from one server to another?
My thoughts are at the moment are:
· Drop the racktables database off the new server
· Put the secret.php file back to the way I found it
· Run thru a complete install
· Then Migrate the database
· Then peform the upgrade on the migrated database?
