Transfer user database?

Hi

I am wondering how I can move/copy the user database that I have in my Subsonic 4.6 installation onto (a different server) with 4.7b2?


Cheers,
T

Just copy C:\subsonic (or the equivalent) from your 4.6 machine to your 4.7 machine before installing.

Crude, but efficient!

Or do you need to keep certain other settings on your 4.7 machine, and just transfer the user accounts? That would be possible of course, just a bit more complicated.

Well of course, if I do it the 'crude way' I would have to reconfigure everything and re-index the database, and was frankly hoping
for a more elegant solution... But I didn't want to be a bore about it :)

If you still need to do it, I wrote down a few steps to move just the users here: (haven't tested it myself though)
