Problem with Migration & Transfer Manager

[Dree]

I'm trying to migratie domains to my new 11.5.29 server, but the MTM is excluding files which should be migrated.
The logs show that rsync excludes these folders:
httpdocs/plesk-stat
httpsdocs/plesk-stat
conf
.plesk
pd
statistics
statistics/webstat
statistics/webstat-ssl
statistics/ftpstat
statistics/logs
statistics/anon_ftpstat
logs
bin
dev
lib
lib64
usr
libexec
etc
tmp
var
httpdocs/plesk-stat
httpsdocs/plesk-stat

Gallery3 for example saves all images in a 'var' directory. These are not migrated now.
Any idea how to change this exclude-list?

Hello! Folders bin, dev, lib, lib64, tmp, usr, var are used for chroot shell. We do not transfer chrooted directories because of source and destination may be different OS. About statisctics, conf and pd: plesk 11.5.29 has new vhost structure and corresponded content is replaced in system directories. For details you can read http://download1.parallels.com/Ples...inistrator-guide/index.htm?fileName=68806.htm.

The problem is that these directories are inside the httpdocs folder.
For example Gallery3 has a folder in httpdocs/gallery_folder/var and httpdocs/gallery_folder/lib
I believe something like this exists in Magento.
This means the Plesk MTM cannot migrate these domains without losing important data.

forgive me for hijacking this thread.

my current plesk server is ubuntu + plesk 9.5.4 and i am planning to build a new one (centos 6 + plesk 11.5.x)

will I be able to transfer domains easily with the transfer/migration manager even tho the old server is... old?

 

[Dree]

Yes, that will work just fine.

Yes, you are right. Corresponding content is actually not transfered on target. I reported this problem to developers. Hope it will be fixed soon. Thank you!
