What is the procedure for moving a forum to a new host ?
I have a small forum in version 1.2.12 which I need to move to a new host . I tried installing 1.2.15 on the new site , then restoring the backup from the old site on the new . I tried restoring the old , then running install .  Neither worked .

Thanks .

Thanks for the input .

I just went ahead and deleted the bouncing users directly from the users table using the phpMyAdmin interface .  No apparent problems . ( They had no posts anyway . )

Is there any description of the SQL tables and the dependencies between them ?

Specifically I want to delete a bunch of users who've never posted and are probably spambots .
Can I just delete the records in , in my case ,  4thCoSyusers , or are there other tables I must also update ? I see "bans" links to userID . I guess the records must be deleted there also ?

Thanks ,
