alistair I have a lot of content and a number of different accounts (about 15) on another VPS that I would like to migrate to Opalstack. Is there an easy way to do that?
sean If the other accounts are on WebFaction VPS then you can migrate them using our WF migration tool: HOWTO migrate stuff automatically from WebFaction If the other accounts are on some other service then you can migrate them manually, eg: Open an Opalstack account: https://my.opalstack.com/signup/ Add your domain: https://help.opalstack.com/article/50/managing-domains Create a shell user: https://help.opalstack.com/article/45/managing-shell-users Create your apps: https://help.opalstack.com/article/47/managing-applications Create your databases: https://help.opalstack.com/article/51/managing-databases Set up the sites: https://help.opalstack.com/article/52/managing-sites Export your databases on the other VPS. Copy your files and data from the VPS to your Opalstack server. If the other host supports rsync then you can do that with the following command run as your Opalstack shell user: rsync -az --info=progress2 user@yourvps.com:/path/to/app/ ~/apps/app/ Import your data: https://help.opalstack.com/article/82/-exporting-and-importing-postgresql-databases https://help.opalstack.com/article/73/exporting-and-importing-mariadb-databases Test the site on Opalstack, either by using your opalstacked.com subdomain or by mapping your domain to your Opalstack server IP in your local hosts file: https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/27350/beginner-geek-how-to-edit-your-hosts-file/ When you're satisfied that the site is working, point your domain at Opalstack: https://help.opalstack.com/article/38/how-do-i-point-my-domain-at-my-opalstack-server
