Migrating data to local host using XAMPP

Hey There

. I am wondering if I can migrate all the data of
my Vanilla forum to my local host using XWampp .

I have the current copy of my database and the copy of the archives of
the forum . but I am not sure how to configure all inside my local host.

I have apache and I use Mysql admin . All is correctly configured in
regard of Xwamp

The database is imported inside the mysql panel in my local host and
also the data of vanilla forum is correctly updated inside Xmap

But I am not sure how to connect both .

I am a bit noob with that .

    Search through the tutorials, I think there has been some talk on that.

    But it is no hard work anyway...

    • Make sure that you delete all *.ini files in the /cache folder
    • In the /conf/config.php you will find the database settings. Change them to reflect your new online MySql credentials.

    Basically that's everything that is to do.

  • Thank you . I will test it today

    Hello,
    For my part, it does not cease to make bugs! I probably missed something.
