Export data to new install on different server

Self-Hosted | v5

I have a selfhosted install version 5.10.29 , i have installed version 5.10.29 on the new server but it does not have a import/export like my current version 5.10.29 has. Even though the versions are the same the installs are different. Any advice on moving the data in this situation ? Thanks

Hi,

If you’re transferring between two selfhost installs you’ll want to use mysqldump to transfer the data

Thanks for that, even though both 5.10.29 versions look different a move of the database is enough to complete the transfer?

Can you post screenshots? Maybe you’re using the Flutter and React web apps.

Looking at the demos on invoiceninja.org thats the difference im currently using the flutter version where as the new install is the react version. what is the best way to proceed with the different versions to move the data? Thanks

The frontend you’re using doesn’t impact moving the data between servers, you’d want to use mysqldump and copy over the .env file
