    Hi,

    I switched to a new host and had them migrate my accounts from the old host to the new server. Now, all my static sites work when I browse to the account with the IP address and ~accountname. However, all my ee sites do not work, and my ecommerce sites do not work.

    Is that not the way to do it? Can I somehow manually fix the database connection so that it will work, or would I have to export/import every database and do a free install of ee etc.

    What is the best workflow for this? Right now the dns is still pointing to the old server so everything is ok, I am just trying to get this working so that I can switch the dns information for all the domains.

    I looked around the forum and found this article.

    So I really have to backup and import every database for each account? And then update the config.php as well as stuff in the settings?

    Is it not possible to just backup an entire cpanel account and unpack it on the new cpanel on the new server?
