Accpac 200 backup - transfer

[ontheroadagain]

Hello,

What files need to be backed up in order to move an Accpac install from one server to another (custom settings, system state, database etc)?

Have searched this forum and didn't find an answer.

Everything

Thanks ettienne, but "everything" was not the answer i was looking for. I am sure there are 3-4 settings/custom files that can be transferred to the newly installed Accpac server, along with the database files, to complete a transfer and make the new install exactly like the old.

Open Accpac, click Help, System Information.
Copy everything in the Program Directory and Shared Data Directory. Copy any Customization Directories as well, and obviously copy all the data folders.
In short copy everything.

Then run database setup to point to the new ODBC DSN's.
