Questions:
- Has anyone else done this? Gotchas?
- If the fouled-up-ness extends to the data in the database, such
that the reinstalled copy is broken in the same way ... what partial recovers are possible?
Hi David,
Don't forget to copy your images/uploads folder over also. You may want to run rebuildImages.php --force and rebuildAll.php from the maintenance directory once you finish setting the new one up. Those magically fix a lot of problems for us. Other than that you should likely be good to go.
I don't have any tips for fixing the database unless it's corrupt and then you can figure out the MySQL rebuild commands as well as I can.
Good luck! -Courtney
