Moving Server - License Problems

[Leo Brazil]

I'm moving my forum from my current server to another, in the future I'm gonna use the same URL as before but at this moment I'm using a different domain only for tests purpose.
I have an error with Vba that I think its related to my URL informed here in my account. I already included the domain in my list but it's not working out.

I woundn't like to change the primary URL on my account yet until I have everything running perfectly on my new server.

How can I do that ?

Tks

Not sure what you mean... the URL you have on file here for your free CMPS license would have no affect on you being able to move your vBulletin installation to a different server.

Hi Kevin,

The problem is while I'm moving servers, I'm using a different URL from my file just to test if everything is running OK before to open for the users and cancell my account at the previous server. Did you get my idea ?

Again, that would have no affect on your vBadvanced license.

If you are talking about your vBulletin license (which is different from your vBadvanced license) then you'll need to ask over at the vBulletin.com support forums.

Kevin,

That's the error I get when try my VbA on the brouser:

Invalid forum path specified! Please edit this file and be sure to include the correct path for your $forumpath variable.

When I run VbA diagnostics that's the error I get:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in [path]/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php on line 4488

Warning: file_get_contents(http://license.vbadvanced.com/?p=4) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in [path]/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php on line 4488

Any idea ? This is driving me crazy...

I found the problem, I figured out that I should manualy change the forum path on index.php file and not only using the VbA on ACP.

But I still get the error below when I run diangnostics on VbA ACP.

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in [path]/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php on line 4488

Warning: file_get_contents(http://license.vbadvanced.com/?p=4) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in [path]/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php on line 4488


Any idea why the reason for this error ?

Thanks Brian, I think we posted almost at the same time.

I could run VbA now and seems to be OK but I'm still getting the error when I run diagnostics. I'd be glad with some tips.

Tks.

That error means that the file_get_contents() function is not available on your server. That shouldn't really cause any problems though, other than not being able to use the diagnostics link.

Now I see, probably that's the reaon The VbA version can't be showed too.

Tks.
