Move the website with the command on DirectAdmin extremely simple and quickly with AZDIGI.
I. Introduction
Continuing with the DirectAdmin series, in today’s article, AZDIGI will show you how to move websites between users quickly with just one command line. This will make it very simple to transfer websites between websites without spending time manually moving like before.
Please go to part II to refer to the steps.
II. Implementation guide
To move a website from one user to another on DirectAdmin, you can do it with the following 3 steps.
Step 1: SSH into your DirectAdmin system
To move a website from one user to another on DirectAdmin, we first need to SSH or access your VPS/server with root privileges. If you don’t know how to SSH into your VPS/Server, you can refer to the following tutorial:
After SSH has been successful, we continue with step 2 to move the website.
Step 2: Check and determine the Website and User need to move
Before moving, you need to determine exactly which User the Domain to move is located in and which user the new User needs to move to avoid errors during the move.
To determine exactly, you access DirectAdmin => Admin interface => Account Manager => Show All Users.
This page will list all the websites corresponding to the User who is managing them. As shown below, the Users corresponding to their website are as follows:
- User: admin
- azdigi.cf
- User: azdigi
- azdigi.vn
- User: demouser
- azdigi.cf
- azdigi.test
After you have identified the exact website and the corresponding user, you start the moving process with step 3.
Step 3: Move the website from the Old User to the New User
The command to move the website from the old user to the new user on DirectAdmin will have the following structure:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./move_domain.sh domain.com olduser newuser
For example, I will proceed to move the azdigi.cf website from the old user: demouser to the new user: azdigi. So the corresponding command will be as follows:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./move_domain.sh azdigi.cf demouser azdigi
Note:
- Command 1: Move to the script directory to run the command.
- Command 2: The command to move the website from the old user to the new user (Remember to replace your website, old and new user respectively)
After running the command, the result will be returned as shown below that you were successful.
To be more sure, go back to DirectAdmin => Admin interface => Account Manager => Show All Users to check.
As shown below, I have successfully moved the website azdigi.cf from the old user demouser to the new user azdigi.
You don’t need to reconfigure because everything will be automatic and the website will still work normally.
Note: when moving in the above way, your website will still work normally, but when you go to the MySQL Management section on the new user, you do not see the database being moved. In this case, you need to create a new database, import it again, and then configure it if you want it to be easy to manage.
