Hi folks!

Has any one successfully migrated an existing DNN 6.1 website from a shared host to Azure? I have tried several methods and have not been successful.

A new install of 6.1 on Azure using the Accelerator http://dnnazureaccelerator.codeplex.com works fine, but I want to migrate an existing DNN 6.1 website and its databse to Azure.

Bebuilding the DNN 6.1 website from scratch on Azure is not an option.

Anyone have any success doing this and/or tips or hints?

Thanks, Bill

Bumping this.  I wish we could tag the folks around the DNN Accelerator.  I suspect they would know the most.

I too would like to know.  I'm trying to move an existing website, a small one for that matter, and having zero luck.   The big issue is SQL Azure.  Not only is it extremely painful to get data into it, but it basically rejects various existing DNN data and several Sprocs due to non-compliance with Azure.  Even hand stripping out the problems does not make for a successful data copy to SQL Azure.  Just blows up all over the place sometimes creating tables if I'm lucky.  However the tables never get populated with data.

Things tried with with failure including a mixture of a little of each:

  • SQL 2012 Management Studio copy to Azure feature.
  • SSIS copy using SQL .NET connection
  • Open source Azure analysis and migration tools
  • Hand BACPAC creation

I have done it but it was ugly.  Lots of tweaks to sprocs.  Although the three sites I had in my DNN app are working fine, I can't add a new site.
