Hey, join the club... My 27-month-old girl suffered through last night with the flu -- upchucking every 30 minutes or so. Started at 2 AM, and abruptly stopped at 10 AM. We're off the the doctor this afternoon. I am home, and at this while she naps.

By the way, if your kid ever pukes, get a big bowl to catch the next one. Took us two loads of laundry before that dawned on me. \:\(

I'll comment on the above suggestions in following posts.

You'll need to update vars_config.cgi with the new paths/urls if you plan to access the new location of cp.cgi

You don't need to do so to import to threads tho - your .classic files will need at least 'read' access. Just point to the paths of the now-moved classic install and import away \:\)

jgeoff, it is currently a different domain name: www2 vs www. That is another issue that raises questions. I'll ask them in another thread.

> Did your webhost install Classic on the new server, and did they then upgrade that to Threads 7?
The web host copied everything from the old server to the new, so I have a snapshot of the Classic board of a few days ago. They did not install Threads -- that is what I am doing.

As for accessing the Threads CP, thanks for the link. But I cannot log in, since I bypassed the "Create admin user" step, thinking I was going to import. I cannot import across the two servers, so I have no admin user to login with.

Thanks to Gizmo, I'll be setting the paths correctly in the new server's Classic file, vars_config.cgi, to see if I can then get into the new Classic board, then import from it.

...Eventually, I will have to re-copy the old board to the new server and do this all over again. But for now, I am just familiarizing and practicing.

Thanks so much for all the help.
