[cobalt-users] Re: Migration From RAQ4r to RAQ550?

["Michelle A. Hoyle" <mahlist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Other RaQ4 --> RaQ550 gotchas:

1) Crontab files aren't migrated for users.  These are stored 
/var/spool/cron on the RaQ4.

2) I didn't have any .forward files move across at all last time I 
tried this.  No idea why because other . files were correctly copied 
across.

3) If you have procmail filters installed for users, the procmail 
files are copied across, but the permissions on the user directory 
will be incorrect, so you'll get error messages about suspicious .rc 
files all the time in the maillog.  You'll need to make a list of 
those accounts using individual procmail filters and chmod g-w on the 
appropriate individual user directories.

4) If you're using PHP and mySQL on your RaQ4 the RaQ550 isn't 
enabled to serve mySQL with PHP by default.    You'll need to do the 
following steps (as root)

	Edit /etc/httpd/php.ini to enable mysql:
	Find line that says
		;extension=mysql.so
	Remove the semicolon and save the file.

	Make symbolic link for mysql.sock:
	ln -s /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock /tmp/mysql.sock

	Need to restart httpd and mysqld after making change to php.ini:
	/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
	/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql stop
	/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start
