Hello.

First of all, sorry for my english, i'll try to write correctly,

I'm trying to migrate an entire DNN instalation to another server. I'm using Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL server 2008 R2 on both servers. I saw some tutorials on how to migrate DNN, but when i finish the process and try to open the website in the browser, it appears the DNN instalation screen, asif it was my first instalation. I've done the following:

1- Detatch database from server A
2- Copy database and filesystem(DNN folder, with website, lybrary, modules... folders inside) to server B
3- Attach database on server B
4- Configure web.config to connect to database
5- Configure IIS

Then, when i open the website, it shows the DNN installation screen.

Can you help me please?

Thanks

you need to add the new site address as "Portal Alias" in Host :: portals for all sites to be used, prior to moving the site (or in database table PortalAlias directly afterwards).

I already did that... The portal alias is 'sisaqua', and in the new server it's the same, i had it to hosts file too.
