How can I migrate my existing AzuraCast station to a different server or φιλοξενία provider?
If you are looking to migrate your existing AzuraCast station to a different server or φιλοξενία provider, there are several steps that should be taken in order to ensure a successful migration. This article will provide helpful tips and insights to aid in the process of a successful migration.
Backup Your Data
The very first step in any migration is to create a full backup of all your data. This includes any audio files, databases, or any other data related to your station as well as any settings or customizations. It is important to have a complete backup before any migration, as to avoid any loss of data. It is also important to ensure that the backup is compatible with the new φιλοξενία platform. For this, it is best to check with the φιλοξενία provider before beginning the backup process.
Transferring Your Data
Once you have your data backed up, the next step is to transfer it to the new server or φιλοξενία provider. This can be done through various methods, such as using an FTP client, rsync, or a cloud storage service such as Dropbox. Depending on the φιλοξενία provider, they may have specific methods that should be followed for the transfer, so it is important to consult their documentation beforehand.
Installing AzuraCast
The next step is to install AzuraCast on the new φιλοξενία provider. This can typically be done through one-click installers, such as Softaculous or WHMpanel. Once the installation is complete, you will need to import the files and databases from the backup into the new installation.
Configuring Your Airwaves Station
Once the files and databases are imported, you can begin configuring your AzuraCast station. This includes setting up your radio streaming settings, station properties, user accounts, and any other desired settings. Once your station is fully configured, you can test it to make sure it works properly.
